Eleanor Parker, “La mujer de las mil caras”, decía: "No siempre me reconozco a mí misma cuando me veo en las fotos. “Son imágenes que me recuerdan a Ingrid Bergman, Pat Neal, Myrna Loy, Joan Fontaine y Eleanor Powell en ocasiones. Nunca me parezco a mí. Francamente, creo que esto es maravilloso. ¿A qué mujer no le gusta un poco de misterio acerca de sí misma?”.
Hoy habría cumplido 93 años.
One of my favorite westerns, Escape from Fort Bravo (1953, John Sturges), starring the fabulous Eleanor Parker and the great William Holden. A much overlooked western with incredible tension, action and romance. I've never seen a grittier battle with the Indians which, unlike many other westerns, are presented as witty brave warriors when in combat. I also love the soundtrack and the melancholic tune of Soothe My Lonely Heart. Unforgettable.
In fond remembrance of Eleanor Parker, a very gifted actress sometimes overshadowed by her amazing beauty. My grandmother adored her movies and so do I. All my childhood memories are filled with images of Eleanor as a genuine adventuress in such gems as Scaramouche, The Naked Jungle, Many Rivers to Cross or Escape from Fort Bravo. Those were the movie lessons of a strong romantic woman who filled the screen with class. The true baroness of cinema. You'll be fondly remember, Eleanor.
