Norma, the story I heard was that her surgery scars weren't fully healed when principle photography began and extra heavy duty make up had to be used to cover them. The lead content in that make up is what did her in. Hence she died for her vanity.
All I know is there are a couple of scenes where she looks younger (or at least, fresher) than Lana.
AtStirred, Straight Up, with a Twist, it helps to remember that it is permanently 1962 (give or take a decade); and that the problems of the real world can be solved with a touch of glamour and a dash of style.
Thanks for visiting, have fun, and please feel free to add your wit and sparkle to the proceedings!
They are all wax right?
