Donna Douglas Alleged Bit Part in BELLS ARE RINGING


IMDB recently had Donna Douglas as an unbilled extra as a "party guest" in the 1960 Judy Holliday musical BELLS ARE RINGING but I noticed it's been removed from her credits. I presume a fan initially put it in as I never read of her involvement with the movie before and perhaps another (or the same) fan had it removed disputing the appearance. Can anyone tell me anything about the possibility of Donna being in the movie or the history of this IMDB credit for her?

Donna Douglas is indeed in the movie, as a guest at the party thrown for Dean Martin's character. She looks beautiful in a beige-colored gown that shows off her figure and blonde hair. She is mostly in the background in the "name dropping" number, but is in the front as the ensemble heads outdoors to the garden at the end.

Thanks for the info . Here's hoping IMDB puts her back in the credits.

Is Elizabeth Montgomery of Bewitched fame in this Movie in a cameo?

IMDB says in a cameo she played Girl Reading Book.

Any information on this would be appreciated

Thanks :)

If you look at IMDb's slideshow photos for this film, Donna Douglas is clearly visible in two party pictures. In the staircase photo, she's at the bottom of the stairs on the right, just behind the woman in the blue gown. In the photo featuring Dean Martin's clinch with the same blue-gowned woman, Douglas is just behind and slightly left of Judy Holliday.
