Veronica Lake (November 14, 1922 -- July 7, 1973) was an American film actress and pin-up model. She received both popular and critical acclaim, most notably for her femme fatale roles in film noir with Alan Ladd during the 1940s, and was well-known for her peek-a-boo hairstyle. Her success did not last; she had a string of broken marriages and long struggles with mental illness and alcoholism until she died of hepatitis. * Barry Smolin's song "Veronica Lake" is about an irresolute sighting of a homeless Veronica Lake at Union Station in Los Angeles. * The Archie Comics character Veronica Lodge was partially named after Veronica Lake, who was in the midst of her early celebrity when the comic book character was introduced in the spring of 1942. * In 1997, the Academy Award-winning film L.A. Confidential paid homage to Lake's image and manner through Kim Basinger's starring role in an adaptation of James Ellroy's crime novel set in early 1950s Los Angeles. Basinger won an Oscar for her performance, which required her to deliberately resemble Lake. A scene included an image of Lake from This Gun for Hire screening in the background. * Jessica Rabbit from Who Framed Roger Rabbit was modeled on Veronica Lake and Rita Hayworth. Jessica also sports Lake's trademark peekaboo hairstyle. * The character of Ronnie Lake in the hit CBS drama CSI: Crime Scene Investigation is named after her. * Her character in Sullivan's Travels inspired "Miss Lake," a song on London-based French songwriter Louis Philippe's 2007 album, An Unknown Spring. * Billy Wilder's comedy The Major and the Minor has a scene in which the students of a girl's school - and their headmistress - all have peekaboo hairstyles. The boys in the scene mention "The girls at the school have an epidemic...They all think they're Veronica Lake". * In Alfred Hitchcock's suspense film Shadow of a Doubt (1943), the young daughter named Ann says her prayers before going to sleep... "God bless Mama, Papa, Captain Midnight, Veronica Lake, and the President of the United States." * Hellacopters recorded a tribute song called "Veronica Lake" on their latest album, Head Off! The song was originally written by the New Bomb Turks. * The spider in Bob Clampett's cartoon Eatin' on the Cuff puts on a Veronica Lake wig. * The Bugs Bunny cartoon A-Lad-In His Lamp features a lake called Veronica Lake. * Clips of Veronica Lake were used in Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid, a 1982 spoof of film noir starring Steve Martin. * In the 2009 video game Still Life 2, a sequel to the 2005 game, Veronica Lake is the favourite actress of the game's villain. He is obsessed with her movies, especially The Blue Dahlia. * In 2010 Jack White III added a new girl to his acoustic guitar collection named Veronica Lake. It is a custom white Gretsch Rancher with a gold double pickguard and a picture of Veronica Lake on the back. He is currently playing Veronica with his band The Dead Weather. * In the Three Stooges short subject, "Higher Than A Kite", Larry Fine impersonates Veronica Lake, calling himself, "Moronica". * In Manhattan the Woody Allen character tells his young girlfriend that he's going to take her to see a Veronica Lake movie. She then jokingly confuses her with Rita Hayworth. * In Heavenly Creatures, Juliet (Kate Winslet) and Pauline (Melanie Lynskey) are overheard apparently taking publicity photographs for a planned trip to Hollywood. Juliet says she'll lean back and put her hair on one shoulder and "look just like Veronica Lake". * In The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show, Veronica Lake is the location of the island Moosylvania. * In the Woody Woodpecker cartoon The Barber of Seville Woody styles his hair in a peek-a-boo and says, "Looks like Harmonica Lake." * In an episode of Are You Being Served?, Mrs. Slocombe remarks that she has been told that from the front she looks like Veronica Lake. Mr. Lucas replies that from the back she looks like Windermere Lake.
"Do you ever think of anybody but yourself ?"
"Anybody but me ? What *do* you mean ?" [OK - I wrote that line]
Mixed-up values indeed. People that self-centred have a habit of winding up friendless, and very very lonely.

Lol. Mixed up values. If he's glad Paula's dead, why was he so desperate to contact her all that time? And he was willing to deprive his first wife of the chance to make the history books just so she could stay home and darn his socks and fix his drinks? Jeeze, she even told him who she was in the first place! And that second wife... I felt so awkward for her when the maid wouldn't shut her damn pie hole and droned on and on about how Paula was irreplacable, only to trash her at the very end.
