Photoplay (Jul-Dec 1963)

Chamberlain, a wife might be just what i he’d order. Not only to banish the esseni tial loneliness Dick has known all his life, hut to dispel his fears and crack the bland, boyish mask he wears for the world. It still hides the fascinating man underneath, still makes Dick Chamberlain seem to most people what he is not. For it is the mask — and the mask alone — that keeps people from knowing how much more than a boy he is. Only the other day, dressed in T-shirt and jeans, Dick wandered into a Laguna Beach drugstore, riffled through the maga Continued from page 33 me about it. My mother won't like it. Only i last Christmas she warned me not to take I any nude photographs. But I guess if you l want to be a true artist this kind of thing is necessary.” DOLORES HART: “I would say absolutely not. And I don't care if it’s the greatest part in the world. No role in any picture is important enough for an actress to sacrifice her womanhood — and all that a woman has is her femininity. One of the big farces in Hollywood is the emphasis upon integrity, yet some people who are 1 always talking about it are often willing to put a role ahead of their dignity. We have responsibilities in being actors and actresses. If you pose in the nude for a role, you may be on the screen for twenty-four seconds at the most, hut you have to live . with yourself for twenty-four hours a day.” DIANE McBAIN : “Absolutely no. If I can’t get by on legitimate acting ability, I'll retire.” STEFANIE POWERS: “No. I wouldn’t. I don’t feel that my type of character or image at this point would call for it. And i even if it did, I wouldn’t do it.” CARROLL BAKER: “Yes, I guess I yielded to the nakedness trend in “Station 6 Sahara” — and for a magazine layout, too. All our barriers are breaking down; we’re reverting to a pagan society. If the First Lady wears tight Capri pants and a swim suit, what are we poor actresses supposed to do to attract attention?” SANDRA DESCHER: “I wouldn’t do it for any amount of money. My reasons are both professional and moral. Professionally speaking, I think audiences | couldn’t ever visualize you in a June Allyson-type role again if you posed in the nude. Also, I don’t think producers or directors would he able to see you in any other type of role either, once you’d done that. “Morally speaking, I just wouldn’t want to pose in the nude, even if it was going to win me an Academy Award — which I zine rack and came up with a “Dr. Kildare” comic book. He moseyed over to the counter to pay. The cashier looked at the comic book and then up and down at big Dick. “That’ll be ten cents,” she stated. He gave her the dime and waited silently while she dropped it into the till. “Thank you,” she said “ — little boy.” — Kirtley Baskette Dick’s on “Dr. Kildare” NBC-TV. Thursdays 8:30-9:30 P.M.

I just don’t believe in it. I don't think any career would be that important to me. If that was the only way I could get ahead, I'd say forget it. “If I do make any great advances in my career. I want it to be because I have done a good acting job and can do other good acting jobs — and that’s all!” LYNN LORING: “If I can’t get a break in my career without doing that, then the career will just have to be forgotten. No role is that important.” ELSA CARDENAS: “No. Because I would not feel comfortable. It would bother me. If it didn’t bother me, it would be all right. They are going to think I am very square, but I like to be square in this. Also, I catch cold so easy!” Choose the douche that’s more assuring! If you have been douching ^vith makeshift kitchen mixtures like vinegar — or even plain water alone — change to medically formulated Massengill Powder.

And if this is what success is based upon, no, thank you.” ELIZABETH ALLEN: “If it was a role that I felt was a good role, and if a nude scene were indigenous to my portrayal of the character, 1 would do it. “But I would not do it for sensationalism. It would have to be a role that called for an actress as an actress, not as a girl who has a beautiful body. I would be performing as an actress, and the fact that I was nude would be secondary. Also, it would have to be a role that was worthy of the sacrifice.” IOANNA MOORE: “An actress’ duty is to perform the role. And if it was in the script and important to the character delineation, I would do it.” MIKKI JAMISON: “No, thanks . . . nothing’s left to the imagination! However, I have a mad passion to wear a yellow lace slip in some yellow-lace-slip-type scene someday . . . how yummy! I’ll never forget Lee Remick in ‘The Long, Hot Summer’ in her yellow slip. . . .” CHERYL HOLDRIDGE: “No. I just couldn’t do it. I don't think my body should be revealed to everybody like that. I couldn’t pose in the nude. I couldn’t even face the photographer! “I have too much respect for my body to expose it to everybody’s eyes who wanted to see it. I just wouldn’t do it, that’s all.” — Greg Alexander DOFAAQ WA*T rVblVW SONGS & REC There may be OPPORTUNITY for you in today's booming music business.
