She was the baroness in the Sound of Music, wasn't she? My fav character actually. I think her part was more interesting and had more depth than the part of Maria.

Oh and what movie's at 1:27?

Great tribute!

I'm not sure which one you mean, it's right on the border of two clips...if you're referring to the black and white film, that's A DETECTIVE STORY, if you're referring to the color film, that's ESCAPE FROM FT. BRAVO.

Yes, she was my favorite character in the Sound of Music too! She's so amazing!

[emster93]

I meant the color one. That's William Holden, right?

Thanks!

[BSTO88]

yep that's him:)

okay, can i just say she is a total hottie? cause... she is lol.

but beyond that, she actually had TALENT, which can't be said of a lot of beautiful movie stars now (and...well, then, too, I guess).

I wish more people knew her! At least we'll always have Baroness Schraeder :)

thanks for this awesome vid!

Wonderful actress,and a real head turner,

Really nice tribute to an actress who was rather underappreciated - I thought she was very good in "Caged", the story of an innocent girl in a women's prison.

At 3:07, Kirk Douglas kisses her on the bridge of her nose. LOLZ! Great actress. I just watched her in "Between Two Worlds." I loved it.

Parker was underated. She had everything, but never considered for an Oscar. The best roles were given to actresses who were "ceiling inspectors."

Wow! What a dish! ("Dish" was slang for a good-looking girl back in the day.)

[freddiefreejazzify]

her best role, to me, is in Scaramouche... She turns out to be so wild and so hot...

Looking for family members of Eleanor Jean Parker. I am related on my mothers side. Her father my Grandfather last name was "Will."
