@Tigerlily21 problem with you claim that it is all "makeup, hair stylists and lighting" is that bette davis once reportedly said "After 4 hours of make-up I once thought I looked acceptable, then again, Veronica Lake just rolls out of bed and looks like God just finished off his masterpiece"

@Chuck41148 Veronica Lake was just 50 years old when she died. Born in 1922 and died in 1973 shy of her 51st birthday of hepatitis C. Also sad is the fact she had been broke for years and was working as a bartender in a cheap New York City hotel. A movie critic heard about it and it got back to Marlon Brando who sent her a check for 1,000 dollars. But Lake had pride and only framed it and put it on the wall.

I remember as a kid in the 50's having a huge crush on her. I'd watch the TV listings to see if her movies were on.

The last time I saw her was on "To Tell The Truth" as the mystery guest . I forget the year but I think she was in her 80's.

@Tigerlily21 I think you need to see the photo of her in Life magazine, with her hair up in braids,no makeup, and the most beautiful smile you'll ever see.
