First, your link title made me laugh. And then what is at the link made me laugh even more. Thank you for that.

I always remember Joi Lansing from the episodes of The Beverly Hillbillies in which she appeared, particularly the one in which (if memory serves) she sang "All of You" to Jethro. I don't recall knowing till I just looked her up that she was in Touch of Evil.

Anyway, yes, she probably would have been a very good Hedy, although I do think that Maureen Arthur had quite a good enough figure and an effective almost Channing-like delivery that worked well in the movie.
