A few weeks ago, we featured a similar item and here are more pictures from the Early to Mid Fifties showing that even those Stars of the Screen have to have some down time – and indeed they do know how to enjoy themselves
For instance Jeanne Crain BELOW just loves making home movies and is quite often seen with her quite sophisticated film camera – this one looks to have three turret lenses and is probably a 16 mm type but it looks good. Jeanne gives her own film nights at her home where her friends have great fun watching them. I would imagine she took this film camera along on location – wish we could get hold of those films if she did as there would be a really interesting look ‘behind the scenes’ of the films from those days.
Rhonda Fleming below had just married Dr. Lew Morrill when this picture was taken They had tied the knot while she was on location filming Pony Express for Paramount Pictures
Hollywood Stars at Home – Above Rhonda Fleming and Below Doris Day
ABOVE – Doris Day is just busying herself around her home
ABOVE – Robert Cummings swimming with his Daughter Tio. She was one of five children he had with former actress Mary Elliot
A quiet cup of tea with his wife for James Stewart.
Barbara Bel Geddes – BELOW
Barbara Bel Geddes lived in what is described as ‘a modest, attractive house in West Hollywood’
BELOW – she is with her Daughter Susan
BELOW – Finishing writing her letters and then choosing a Book
I remember her from the film I Remember Mama made in about 1948 – although for me it was seeing it on Television quite a few years later. She did not have a prolific career in films -and in truth didn’t make that many and when she did she was never top billed.
She is probably best remembered for the very successful Television Show Dallas much later
