| She is also terrific on a first season Perry Mason episode, which she apparently filmed just before her fatal car crash on the 4th of July weekend of 1957. CBS waited until the end of 1957 to air the episode, but it was one of the first that the company shot. Her performance is brassy and confident and proves, along with her singing on the Pipe Dream cast recording and her great work in Jailhouse Rock, that we would have seen and heard a lot more of and from her had she lived. |
