She was a wooden actress but she did get a bum rap because she wasnt quite as gorgeous as Grace Kelly. Still, she was a plank of wood.

i would hardly say she was wooden - like grace kelly she was one of hitchcock's icy blondes

Never really liked Hitchcock---and my favourite from his "women" is Janet Leigh.

Don't really like Tippi's hair in those first pictures.

But it's great she's got a thread here!

the start of an article that talks about hitchcock's "women"

Hitchcock’s female stars—particularly his blondes—are all about forehead. Usually coifed with styles swept back or up off the brow, the women’s faces, not their smartly dressed bodies, are the focus of attention. Given little adornment in the way of jewellery and accessories, and made-up with a clean artfulness (in which sophisticated polish and naturalness blend on the countenance), the face emerges as pristine, the forehead a vista of unfussy feminine beauty. In rear window, Grace Kelly’s visage is elevated to the cinematic equivalent of an epiphany when she leans into soft-focus close-up for a kiss from James Stewart. Eve Marie Saint’s frosted white eye-shadow made her an ivory vision from cheekbone to hair-tip in north by northwest. And Kim Novak never looked so sublime as in vertigo’s Madeleine moments, her somewhat porcine face dramatically attenuated by sleek styling. Most prominent, however, is the Tippi Hedren forehead, with a hairline so high as to be directly above the hinge of the jaw, her teased bangs curving up high before billowing back.
