Marlene Dietrich - Fourth of 5 postings

We have had quotes by the Divine Miss M, now we have some notable quotes about her.

If she had nothing more than her voice she could break your heart with it. But she has that beautiful body and the timeless loveliness of her face. It makes no difference how she breaks your heart if she is there to mend it.
Ernest Hemingway

She remains what she has been for many years - an absolutely strange delight, whose gift lies outside her achievement as an actress, is not tied to a specific time and does not depend on the taste of the moment, not even on common sense.
Cecil Beaton

The most intriguing woman I've ever known.
John Wayne


I am at heart a gentleman.


Without tenderness, a man is uninteresting.


The average man is more interested in a woman
who is interested in him than he is in a woman with beautiful legs.


Marlene Dietrich - What do you think - Allure?

Judging from the quotes it would seem she would have been irresistable to any man with half a brain. She was stunning even when she was soaking wet and covered in mud.

Misscriss,

Earlier on, I scanned them large, but for bandwidth and loading times for the general visitor I made them smaller. Newer posts have larger images "after the clock".

Well it's nice to see a mysterious and beautiful woman like Dietrich... even in small size postcards.
