My Take
Lynn Bari fascinates me as a study in the unsung backbone of Hollywood's studio era. She made roughly 150 films for 20th Century Fox, often cast as the sultry 'other woman' rather than the lead, yet that very typecasting made her indispensable to the machine. I have a soft spot for these working actors who never quite cracked top billing but gave every picture its texture and edge. Her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame is well deserved. There's a certain romance in knowing her smoldering presence still flickers in black-and-white frames decades after her passing.
