I’ve always preferred Elizabeth Montgomery over Barbara Eden, always always always. I think I was into my 20s before I realized how gorgeous she was, not just pretty (because I’d always known she was that), but gorgeous.

Elizabeth Montgomery!

    A babe indeed. Risked being typecast after Bewitched, but that nurse in Amos and Lizzie Borden do much to balance the scales.

    • mickelodeon says:

      I would agree, Gregory, though I’m not familiar with what you refer to as Amos. But Elizabeth Montgomery as Lizzie Borden was wonderful. =)

  • Gregoryno6 says:

    Amos was a movie EM made with Kirk Douglas, set in an old folks home. She was the Nurse Ratched type who ran the place (and did away with the residents).

    Mickel*, I was trawling for some info on science fiction writer Alfred Bester, and turns out he wrote a piece for TV in which EM starred with Fred Astaire!

    There’s a photo of them together on Wikipedia:

    *If it’s all the same to you, I’ll stick with Mickelodeon. Mickey Glitter makes me think of Gary Glitter, which I’d rather not do. For a number of reasons.

    Did you know EM’s father was an actor too? I bought this

    last year, and finally got around to watching The Divorcee, which features Robert Montgomery. Whose daughter was, ta-daa, our favourite nose-twitcher.

    I think I did know that and am sure I’ve seen some of his work, but couldn’t name a thing right now. I can’t wait for Christmas to post that awesome picture!

    No kidding – Robert Montgomery was Elizabeth’s father? He starred in one of my favorite Carole Lombard films – Alfred Hitchcock’s “Mr. & Mrs. Smith”!

  • mickelodeon says:

    OH MY GOD. YES! That’s it. That’s where I’ve seen him. I must have blanked on it because of Carole Lombard…

  • I have been a big fan of Elizabeth Montgomery for so many years as a young child. She was a great actress and she knew her stuff. Very gifted and talented she was on television and in movies. I felt Elizabeth Montgomery did better in dramatic roles than comedy. Maybe it’s just me, I feel she can play good and bad girl roles in movies. I still love her and I miss her very much. She did great on Bewitched as Samantha Stephens as the good witch, then I liked Serena her wild cousin. Elizabeth Montgomery has Bewitched us all in a good way.

      Hi Marsha! Thanks for the comment. I’m glad you found my Elizabeth Montgomery post – I do mean to make her a proper serial girl with more than just the few images I’ve got. =) I thought she was amazing on Bewitched and was the perfect foil to the Darrens. Also good as Lizzie Borden. I watched that movie for the first and only time at the Lizzie Borden Bed and Breakfast some years ago; the b&b had the dress she wore in the movie (I believe it was green) and the lament of the hostess the entire weekend was, “If we could only get the hat from Paramount!”

    Most men will not agree with Elizabeth Montgomery over Barbara Eden.
