Remember back in the earlier part of the year I had a strange fascination with '60s actress Pamela Tiffin? Of course not. So you should take a moment to look through my archives and readed the series I did for her. Currently I seem to be leaning towards the lovely Tuesday Weld. Stay tuned for all things Weld in this space!

Tuesday Weld is the new Pamela Tiffin

That's cool! I prefer Pamela Tiffin to Tuesday Weld, but I love Tuesday Weld too (I pretty much love most Sixties starlets).
ReplyDeletei was never a big fan of hers mostly because the types of films she was in have little interest to me BUT she was very good in the Cincinnati kid with Steve McQueen and even better in Sergio Leone's gangster masterpiece Once Upon a Time in America with DeNiro so she does merit some respect ;)
ReplyDeleteYay for Tuesday!
ReplyDeleteHer films are very limited but I'm excited to have a new interest!
ReplyDeleteJust imagine, Weld was considered, in part because of her on-screen quirkiness, the part of Bonnie in Bonnie and Clyde.
ReplyDeleteshe was , in fact , offered the part of Bonnie but turned it down because she was pregnant with my step sister Natasha. just to clarify :-)
DeleteYeah, I love Tuesday! She's a brilliant actress and a smart lady.
ReplyDeleteIf I recall, Tuesday Weld was considered for parts based more on her "hubba-hubba"-ness than her acting ability. She and Tab Hunter would have had long long careers if all that was required was looking at them.
ReplyDeleteI loved her in Michael Mann's Thief, with James Caan. She played a great tough broad.
ReplyDeleteI love Tuesday...she was awesome opposite Anthony Perkins in PRETTY POISON. But since I missed the homage to Pamela, let me just say that she was most excellent in ONE TWO THREE, easily my favorite of her performances.
ReplyDeleteI love them both: grew up watching Tuesday Weld as Thalia Menninger on the TV show DOBIE GILLIS. And Pamela Tiffin in ONE, TWO, THREE was a total rediscovery when I caught the film recently. (And as a native Atlantan, she totally nailed the Georgian accent, second only to Vivien Leigh.)
