Unknown said...: I think it was Claudette who was only photographed from one side !!
Loved her in 'It happened one night.'; 4:18 PM
M said...: I've heard of that! It doesn't make much sense, as I've also seen photos of her facing the camera straight on, and of course in the movies she made, and there's nothing wrong with her other side!; 8:36 PM
Nik said...: There was that story about how they had to rebuild a whole set because Claudette would have to enter the shot with her "wrong side" to the camera!

I love her in It Happened One Night too.

Is this pic from that Demille movie where she had to bathe in a pool of milk? Scandelous!; 9:46 PM
M said...: Yes, she's playing Cleopatra. :); 10:02 PM
