The other Liz

Most of the time being retired is incredibly boring. Also puzzling. After 40 successful years in advertising with major successes like Carnival's "We've Got the Fun" campaign and Leona Helmsley's
"Why Should You?" ads, you would think somebody would call for freelance. But, alas, no. Anyway today I don't care. Because this afternoon there are four—count them four—Lizabeth Scott films on Turner Classic Movies. What a feast! Pitfall (1948), Easy Living (1949), The Company She Keeps(1951), The Racket 1951. That face. That voice. Couldn't be happier. So if you're a company seeking greater profits and you've heard what a  brilliant copywriter I am, don't call today.

Note: She was every bit as good as I remember her. I even got a bonus: another one of my all-time favorite actresses, Jane Greer, playing against type as the bad girl of the piece, the role usually reserved for Ms. Scott.
