| I enjoyed O'Hara's work in THE PAJAMA GAME as something completely different from other roles I'd seen her in up to that point (SWEET SMELL OF SUCCESS, DRACULA, LIGHT IN THE PIAZZA), but her take on the role was at odds with the character as written. She played Babe as a 1940's wisecracking Hollywood dame in the Rosalind Russell mode, which, amusing as it was, was completely inappropriate for a 1950's small town Iowa factory worker. |
