>>It's a terrible pity Lake's life was so very short, I'm sorry, I mean to say "brief"<<

It wasn't that brief - she died at age 54. Her life was quite tragic though, and her long out - of - print autobiography is worth reading if you can find it.

>>If I were to forced to rank movie women actors by sheer, perfect beauty, I would have to say Veronica Lake first and the young Elizabeth Taylor a close second<<

I think I'd put Louise Brooks and the silent era Gloria Swanson above either of those ladies, but those are just my preferences. Brooks probably wins the title of the smartest film actress ever, judging by the writing she did in her later years.
