The Baroness
The lovely Eleanor Parker (possibly best known in her long career as the Baroness in The Sound Of Music) celebrates her 90th birthday today!
Who even knew she was still alive?
What better way to pay a fitting tribute to the lady than [a well overdue visit to] Steve Hayes aka Tired Old Queen at the Movies, with his review of one of her sadly forgotten - yet amazingly campy - movies (for which she was nominated for an Oscar), the 1950 women's prison drama Caged:
Camp movies we have never seen, #297 in a series...
Happy birthday to a great survivor!
