Janet Leigh (1927-2004)
Having mentioned her twice in this blog in the past year, we note the passing of actress Janet Leigh. While most remember her as the unfortunate Marion Crane in Hitchcock's "Psycho" (1960) that was not the role that sticks in my memory: in 1958, my father, Don, took me and my friends to see Richard Fleischer's "The Vikings" starring Kirk Douglas, Tony Curtis and Janet Leigh on my birthday. I was 15 years old at the time and Janet's Morgana stayed with me for many years after as the most beautiful movie heroine ever. Then, in 1984, my father won a technical Academy Award presented by Janet Leigh. We'll miss her.
