Even though Katharine Hepburn didn't like the script, she may get an Award.
Sandra, Tony, and the Diet
No high school freshman co-ed was ever as thrilled as Sandra Dee over her 'blind date' with Tony Perkins. "We've never met," the pretty blonde Sandra confided, "and, well, what girl wouldn't be excited about going out with Tony?" In Sandra's set, I guess Mr. Perkins rates as an 'older man.'
I didn't happen to catch them out on this date, but Tony must have liked Sandra. I saw them on a 'repeat' at Kathryn Grayson's opening at the Moulin Rouge and Tony looked quite smitten.
P.S. — Sandra told me that never, never again would she over-dose herself with Epsom Salts to keep her figure. I scolded her about that — and she agreed with me that she was wrong.
Sandra Dee was thrilled when Tony Perkins phoned her for a 'blind date.'
Superstitious Kim Novak may not be sure of it herself, but the odds are that she'll marry Dick Quine in 1960.
Sid Luft says that his wife Judy Garland is going to come out of her current illness a 'very slender girl again.'
PERSONAL OPINIONS
Don't get the idea that it was Rock Hudson who turned down Let's Fall in Love with Marilyn Monroe. Rock was very upset — he told me so — when his U-I bosses nixed the picture at 20th even though Marilyn had promised to make a movie for Rock's company if she could get him. . . .
What a bit of irony it will be if Katharine Hepburn is up for an Oscar for her outstanding performance in Suddenly, Last Sum
mer. Katharine didn't like Tennessee Williams' story, didn't like working with the other actors (Elizabeth Taylor and Montgomery Clift), nor being directed by Joe Mankiewicz. Wonder why she ever accepted the part — which jolly well may win her the Academy Award. . . .
Shelley Winters is an unhappy girl. Not only is she having her problems with Tony Franciosa, but she deeply misses her little girl who remained in school in the East while Shelley was making Reach for Tomorrow (formerly Let No Man Write My Epitaph) in Hollywood. On top of everything she fell very ill with a near attack of pneumonia. . . .
What a lot of illnesses! Elizabeth Taylor's personal physician. Dr. Rex Kennamer,
who flew East when Liz was hospitalized with pneumonia, told me that this was one of the most critical illnesses of her life. . . .
Judy Garland is another victim of sickness. She and Sid Luft planed East to see some shows and have a good time when Judy was unexpectedly stricken with a bad case of hepatitis and was in a hospital for two months. One favorable thing about it — Sid says Judy is going to come out of this illness a "very slender girl again. . . ."
Kim Novak, a very, very superstitious girl, lost two 'prop' wedding rings making Sfrangers When We Meet and worried that this might be a "subconscious resistance to marriage"! Even so, I bet she marries Dick Quine in 1960. . . .
