  • Woooooo she's awesome!! My name is also Constance Bennett!! yay =]

  • Constance Bennett, A Jewel of "Hollywood's Golden Age". Bennett had a special touch of class that shined so uniquely on screen, with her blonde hair, delicate features and glamorous fashion style Constance quickly became a popular film star, from 1924-1938. She also worked in radio and theater.

    After 1940, Constance started businesses marketing women's wear and cosmetics.

    Fondly, Hedda

    Oh Baz, what lovely photos and that sweet music!

  • Loved the music, loved her cheek bones and eyes.......but she had one hell of a big nose on her. Thank goodness for the studios "lighting" I say.

  • Thanx for remembering this star. I especially like her in the screwball comedy MERRILY WE LIVE, with a great cast. As a boomer I can still appreciate fine movies of long ago. Timeless writing, acting and BEAUTY never leaves one's heart.

  • I especially love the photos of her as a flapper.Beautiful.

  • she reminds me of my grandmother. my grandmother wasn't this beautiful - but she had that same kind of old world decency and grace that constance had. it's unusual (even for back then)

  • She was a fascinating woman,so beautifull!!

  • You are sadly mistaken. Clearly, you are unfamiliar with Mr. Morris's background or the fact that his GGrandson, Mortan Downey (The Mouth) confirmed their Black family history. What part about "ALL Black Unit" do you not understand.

    The Bennett family has NEVER tried to "White wash" their background.

  • Nonsense Morris W. Morris (né Lewis Morrison), Bennett's maternal grandfather, was of Spanish and English descent and was the white officer put in charge of the black militia in Jamaica.Because you are born somewhere it doesnot change your race.

  • Brave girl! Very brave girl for the times!

  • She is of mixed heritage via her maternal Grandfather from Jamaica. Something she never really tried to hide.
