First of all, thank you very much for your kind words! Likewise
Unfortunately, I haven't read her autobiography, since books on classic movies/stars are very hard to find on this corner of the world, and if I have to choose between ordering online books or DVDs, I always go for the latter. But I'm sure it must be great fun, since she seemed to be such a nice, classy, honest lady (let alone her incredible beauty).
It's a true shame she didn't choose (or were not chosen) to play more of these "colorful" roles in the '40s, and was kind of typecast to basically play wives. Fortunately, she did it again in the '60s in that movie with Joanne Woodward and Paul Newman (From the Terrace?), as well as in the '70s, in Airport 1975, in which she proved once more how versatile an actress she was. However, I believe they never exploted her full potential as an actress, which is truly sad.
