State » "Lady" Label ( Continued from page 37) I don’t know whether the chicken came before the egg, or the cart before the horse. But the crack in little Miss Paget’s nineteen-and-never-been-kissed armor was first visible when she moved with her family into a big ten-room house in the Hollywood Hills. She announced to her startled mama that from now on she would have a bedroom all to herself. (This was the first request of the eighteen-year-old Victoria just as soon as she became Queen, if you remember.) But Mater was due for more surprises! Her darling Debra decorated the walls of the inner sanctum shocking pink, with a strawberry pink velvet bedspread. Anchors away, me lads. Paget’s in the open sea. Jeanne Crain was never mousy. Let’s just say she was conservative. She had an airy fairy quality as though her feet were never touching the ground. But Jeanne came down to earth with a determined bang when she saw what lack of inhibition and plain sex was doing for Marilyn Monroe. Before Mmmmm, it was a losing battle to get Jeanie of the long light brown hair out of peasant dirndls and eyelet-trimmed white blouses into glamour gowns befitting a star. As for trimming the untidy hair, not even director Joe Mankiewicz could manage to snip more than an inch, and to do that he gave Jeanne the choice role of Annabel Higgins in “People Will Talk” with Cary Grant. But I actually walked past Jeanne at a party the day after she dyed her crowning glory a gory red, cut close to her head in the latest shingle. Fortunately, Paul Brinkman was there. “What happened?” I asked Mrs. Paul. Jeanne laughed and there was nothing elf-like about this woman-sized chuckle. “It was time for a change,” she said, looking me straight in the eye (those pretty orbs used to wander ’way up into the clouds). She admitted she is now spending about $12,000 a year on clothes — before it was more like $1,200. Don’t get her wrong, she still loves her husband, home and children. But now she’s going to live a little. M aureen O’Hara was a devoted wife for ten years. There were rumors — but she always denied them. Then she made a picture in Mexico. And there were more rumors — but these were different. There was talk of a Mexican government official madly in love with the beautiful Irish movie star. I’m not blaming Maureen. She really tried with Will Price, and she was unhappy for years before making the serious decision to separate from him. Sure she’s jumped over the traces now. But I don’t believe it will be too high — or for too long. When they told me Deborah Kerr would play Karen Holmes in “From Here to Eternity” I screamed, just as loudly as when I heard Van Johnson was cast as Maryk in “The Caine Mutiny.” Deborah, the most ladylike of all the ladies we have imported from Britain, playing the lecherous Karen? Someone was crazy. But it seems it was me. This is what I mean about an innocent playing a bad girl. Deborah’s married and the mother of two, and she has a spiritual look on her face that has nothing to do with acting. But when you see the movie you’ll see a sexpot who is really convincing! The European press professed to be shocked at the change in Pier Angeli. And they blamed it, of course, on Hollywood. But little Pier merely decided she was grown up and could handle her own affairs without advice from Mama, who had not only insisted on chaperoning her on all dates, but made the poor girl telephone SAMPLES!
