Constance Dowling - hot!


I don't know what it is about her ('cause I'm partial to brunettes) but I'm very attracted to Constance in this film. Maybe it's the form fitting overalls she wears? Does anybody else think she's a looker in THIS film?

Yes, she was a beautiful blonde bombshell in the 1950s, and reminded me of Virginia Mayo. And she was also Mrs. Ivan Tors. She really swept him off his feet! They had four children together. It's so sad she died young.

I especially liked her "twin torpodeos"

She had a fantastic ass, and they sure made the most of it in this film!

Sorry, guys, I don't find her at all attractive. An okay figure, nothing special, but not a pretty face, and her slightly frozen upper lip and resultant tough, odd manner of speaking are a real turn-off. Her sister Doris was far, far prettier. (See her in The Lost Weekend.) Obviously Ivan Tors liked her, because he married her the year after this film -- which wound up being her last screen appearance -- came out. But it is sad she died at only 49.

Her accent didn't help. "Petuh, this is Doctuh Sheppid"

I guess she didn't spend enough time with a dialect coach.

Producer-husband Ivan Tors, who was a Hungarian, probably didn't realize she needed one.

But I'm sure she was a nice lady.

She was attractive with a cute figure. I actually thought she was a young Joan Banks(Lovejoy). We usually saw Joan as more mature and not as attractive as Constance was in this film.

really???? while she isn't gross or unattractive, she's far from "HOT!" she was 33 when she made this and yet she looks to be well into her 50's but that isn't her fault because many actors in the 30's, 40's and 50's (for some reason) look years or decades older than they were in real life - then boom ... in the 60's, suddenly most actors started looking their age or younger which continues today (2016) - i know most of it today is 'fake' or some surgery enchantment, but i'm stumped as to why relatively young actors use to look much older than they actually were at filming. (<- jmho) it's to bad she died so young.
