Right Cuomo?????
Good Gawd...just spit up some in my mouth!!
Natural causes.
They couldn’t do that character today. Not because of the name, but because she was a lesbian that Bond “set straight.” Couldn’t have that with the Hollyweird Gaystapo.
Pussy Galore - how did they get away with that name in 1964?
Nice play Bonemaker...very nice play.
Good question. Lol
Blackman was a member of the Liberal Democrats and was previously a member of the Liberal Party, campaigning for the party in the 1964 general election.[26] She declined a CBE in 2002, as she felt it would be hypocritical to accept the award as a republican.[27] She has publicly supported changing the British electoral system from first-past-the-post to alternative vote for electing members to the House of Commons in the Alternative Vote referendum in 2011.[28]
In 2012 Blackman publicly criticised actor Sean Connery, her Bond co-star in the 1960s, for his status as a tax exile. She said,
I disapprove of him strongly now. Because I don't think you should accept a title from a country and then pay absolutely no tax towards it. He wants it both ways. I don't think his principles are very high.[29]
Following the death of Margaret Thatcher in April 2013, when asked about her thoughts on Thatcher, Blackman responded:
She's not my idea of Heaven I have to say. Although she did some good things in her time, she was merciless about the unions. I'm not too happy about the Falklands either. We lost men, we took injuries and we blew up a ship. I suppose we need it for a base, but my common sense tells me that it does belong more to Argentina than it does to us. Lots of people may throw things at me for saying that about Thatcher, but hopefully not during the performance. She was a powerful figure, but she did damn all for empowering women. She didn’t surround herself with any women whatsoever or encourage women to come into politics or do anything in particular. She could have been a quite wonderful role model.[30]
Prayers to her family, RIP Ms Blackman...
Attractive woman with shit for brains.
Standard Hollywood formula.
Based on her biography, it’s quite possible she was closeted.
You believe that?
If it was the Communist bioweapon, they’d let everyone know.
Good point. Either way, RIP.
"Well........okay."
Poor Pussy....not in the face...
My grandmother and her sisters were very strict Catholics, and I remember a big conflict in the house when I planned to go to the theater to see Rocky (1976) with a friend and his father. They thought as a 12 year-old boy, I would be corrupted by any and all such Hollywood perversity.
Perhaps my perspective isn’t “average” for society at the time…..
then again, in the larger scheme of things, they were probably correct….
She was beautiful in JASON AND THE ARGONAUTS. Last movie I saw her in at a theater was A TWIST OF SAND back in 1969.
