- Not precisely, Dolphie Doo - I asserted that Mary Pickford was
- the basis of Norma Desmond. *You* put forth the rather bland,
- rather dim, rather *unperceptive* thesis that Norma Desmond
- was based on the 'glamorous' movie stars a la Swanson. I then
- pointed out that Pickford was Hollywood gliterazi off-screen.
- In fact, the difference between her screen and 'real' persona
- is accented by Mizz Hepburn in her auto-biography (along with
- affirming the status of an invitation to Pickfair as
- 'stellar...')

- Of course, you are entitled to make whatever you will of
- whatever you will - sweet wittle tinkerpuff that you are.
