Although in terms of the recent revivial (which is much more 40s based) she was a bit late to the game so many of the images that people associate with that type of glamour and 'naughty but nice' girls you can't deny her influence and general fabulousness. Truth and Justice shall Prevail! (Unless Tamper Lad Screws it up...)

She joins Veronica Lake as one of the true American Sex Symbols that had a very rough life after the limelight died. Hope heaven treats her better than life did. Damn you, you kids! Get off my lawn or I'm callin' tha cops! Something pithy!
