32. My first celebrity crush.......

Wed Feb 15, 2023, 04:38 PM

Feb 2023

"Fantastic Voyage"
"One Million Years B.C."
"Hannie Caulder"
"One Hundred Rifles"
"Kansas City Bomber" (the abuse she got in that one was like turning a hundred kindergarten kids loose with crayons on the Mona Lisa.)

If there was a movie with her in it, I wanted to see it.

It took a long time for me to realize what a truly beautiful lady she was on the inside as well as the outside. RIP, Raquel. You were one of a kind!
