I got all caught up, I had to dig to find Jennifer Beals though. I should have known, I grew up in that era

Thanks, we're doing good. I haven't been online lately, just not enough hours in the dayglad you had a chance to get back in. hope you and mrs. 65sporty are well.
That's interesting.
this one is a fake I think. actually, head (looks like the lady on the right that used to be on Big Bang Theory, who is also rather curvy) is too small. neck like a NFL linebacker.

Wait a minute! Top picture, on the right; was she in the new Night Court? If so, yes, she's a doll!
So she was one of the Manson Family. So was Dakota Fanning, but I didn't recognize her!
#2,146 has run her course it seems. answer tomorrow, sunday eve. EST.
No one corrected me, but it was previously pointed out that the one I'm referring to is Melissa Rauch. Sweeny is not that cute!
#2,146 Mary Tyler Moore

New Game.
I actually had held this one since the beginning to this game years ago.
Respectful request?
This one is very unpleasant as a back story. I hope/asking us to try to stay away from/not dwell on the unpleasantness/circumstances of her death, please?
Died in 1969. Age 26. Actor and model. Born in Texas.
Career was short, some controversial elements (irrespective of how she died) mixed into a few short years in the spotlight.
Pretty face, sexy girl roles mostly, getting more serious recognition near the end of her life. Still more known as a pretty face than a serious, talented thespian.
After modeling gigs/beauty pageants as a teenager, she broke into acting as an extra in the mid 1960's.
One of the stars (in a movie she and her friends were hanging around trying to be extras) noticed her for her striking looks, took a liking to her, they started dating, introduced her around, got her on with his agent, etc.
Little by little, she made friends, did some TV, bigger movie roles, and then a couple of mainstream movies. Bigger "pretty girl" parts that also eventually allowed her to act, be funny, do physical action (stunts/comedy) and dramatic stuff.
One I could see/did at a local theater back then as a lad was a Dean Martin movie (old Deano was a secret agent).
The other one, i could not see as a lad, was an ensemble piece, that was rated "X" back then ("PG" today, btw, .. times have changed). It was a best selling book, made into a movie, it had sex, drugs, betrayal, etc. All the trashy stuff in Hollywood at the time. Bombed at the box office, but got her noticed (she did a nude scene).
Married a guy in the film business, he himself with a burgeoning career as a director, and then senseless tragedy.
55 years later, its still talked about. My mid-thirties age kids know this story ... it was that big/heinous. I am old enoug to remember it, even though I was in elementary school, when it happened
Below, age 16-17, one with her modeling start, and the other HS Graduation.
Answer in a few days, or whenever it stops getting traction.

Got it with the clues, but couldn't remember her name , it was on the tip of my tongue. Got it when I looked up her husband.
It was still a big deal when I was in high school in the early 90's. My school library still had some books covering the subject, which I read. What a sad and crazy story.

if i am correct the girl from #2135 was in a movie about this but with a twist at the end.
that was a 100% fictional, "Hollywood" treatment from that fella ... but yes. that girl apparently was in his "re-imagined" take on a true story.
I liked it, it was entertaining, and the bad guys got the short end, but alas grade-A fiction.
reminds me why I don't get my history from that director, or Oliver Stone. I stick with History Channel or Nat Geo stuff presented closer to real events .
