Actress Jean Simmons has died
« on: January 25, 2010, 10:24:36 am »
I heard this sad news over the weekend. I always thought she was beautiful. I remember her most as the evangelist, a sort of Aimee Semple McPherson character, opposite Burt Lancaster in the film Elmer Gantry.

A lovely actress......I can still remember the first movie I ever saw her in, called The Egyptian.

RIP Jean Simmons

Being happy doesn't mean everything is perfect.

It means you've decided to see beyond the imperfection

I'll always remember her in "Guys and Dolls".  Apparently, some other folks agree:

That's funny, I mostly remember her as the proselytizer who Marlon Brando's character attempts to seduce.  (Love that movie.)
