I was thinking of Miranda, State Secret, and Mad About Men, although there may be others. I saw Miranda and Mad About Men (the follow up to Miranda) as a youth in the 50's or 60's when I wasn't old enough to realize actors were sometimes dubbed. I have State Secret on DVD, where she plays an actress who is appearing in a stage musical. I'll check it out when I get a chance. It did sound like it was her voice, although the song could have been recorded live.
Now that you are bringing it up, I think she plays dual roles in Mad About Men and I believe both characters sing at times. I'm pretty sure Johns used her own voice when singing as Caroline, Miranda's non-mermaid cousin. Johns may have sung a bit in some other 50's films, but I'm not sure. I have at least two of them on DVD and if she does sing, I'll mention it on ATC the next time I watch them. |
