lucy,who wouldn´t want to look like hedy lamarr.....joan bennett was certainly a more...umm..pleasant,softer and nautral beauty as a blonde,but i couldn´t imagine her playing the parts she did in woman in the window or scarlet street as a blonde.the black hair gave her these mysterious femme fatale looks that these roles demanded.she wouldn´t have been effective as a sweet pretty blonde.

ann harding,
she makes me think of ophelia and the lady of shalott at the same time.she dared to stay true to her own style and resisted the trends...
