  1. Mr. Clark: Who would have thought St. Bernards would be so popular with the beauties? Sure, I can see Cyd Charrise with one of these big, gentle brutes, and maybe Donna Reed; but Audrey Hepburn? Had her pegged as a poodle person. There may be more to Ms. Hepburn than I had imagined! Also, what a pair of gams on Vera Ellen! As for Barbara Eden, well, who even sees the dog! -- Mykal

  2. Ms Hepburn was really more of a Yorkshire Terrier type, as famously typified by her "Mr Famous." :)

    BTW, I've been going through your "Radiation Cinema!" and it is a wonderful blog. I've always enjoyed that genre casually without thinking about it much, but your thoughtful and thought provoking reviews certainly shed a different light on these great old movies. Thanks for the good work!
