Yvette Mimieux Retrospective

[ Edited ]

TCM presents a nice review of Yvette Mimieux's film work beginning May 4th at 8 pm ET.

 

I highly recommend "Toys in the Attic"  with its stellar cast, an adaptation of the Lillian Hellman play.

Ditto, @Johnnyeager ,  on "Toys in the Attic"!   I'm under the impression TCM doesn't air it that often, and they should-- it would find a ready audience.

Good lineup of films, but I wish they had included "Joy in the Morning" as well. Yvette Mimieux was one of my favorites actresses in the 1960s.

I also wish that they would include the movie "Picasso Summer".  TCM showed it once a few years ago and I enjoyed it very much.

Re: Yvette Mimieux Retrospective

When I think of Yvette Mimieux, I think of Tuesday Weld, and also Carol Linley.

 

Three beautiful and talented actresses, each with a special demeanor.

 

Carol Linley passed on Sept. 2019.

 

Tuesday Weld:  I saw this young starlet Tuesday Weld on stage in person at a film promotion.  

Was she naturally beautiful.!  Smooth, clear almost porcelain skin.

And very shy, very quiet when answering questions.

 

My gosh......has time flown by.......

 

 

 

 

'More or less', 'Right or wrong', 'In general', and 'Just thinking out loud ' (as usual).

Once again, no Diamond Head or Skyjacked or Joy in the Morning.

@ROMARY  Did you see Tuesday Weld in "Soldier in the Rain?" Cute cute cute! What a doll.

Remembering Weld from the Dobie Gillis TV series, the beautiful Thalia Meninger.

@Johnnyeager - thanks for the alert.  One of my favorites is Light in the Piazza - she was so good in the role.
