Was in Ed Wood movies. Ed, as you’ll remember, had Bela
Lugosi in “Plan 9” but Bela died during filming so a chiropractor was brought in as a “double” to finish the role.

I had no idea she died.

And I think I didn't notice that Brad Renfro has been missing breakfast, either.

After Maila accepted the role for Plan 9, she realized how bad it was going to be, and told Wood she didn't want any lines.

She was married (at some point) to the writer of Dirty Harry.

Also, Rock Hudson's agent blew off, er, dismissed out of hand, a friend of hers, so she got a gang together, and one night, they deposited a mattress and a Pond's Cold Cream sign in the agent's front yard.

Back in the 1950s, that was cause for news and rumor in "the business".
