In Memoriam

[Iron Maiden]

She co-starred with Gary Lockwood in the "second" pilot for Star Trek, after the powers-that-be had passed on the original pilot ("The Cage"). This second pilot, "Where No Man Has Gone Before", aired as the third broadcast episode of the show.

And that very episode was just on last week on one of the cable channels. RIP

It's funny how that episode had two actors that went on to bigger projects. She went on to do M.A.S.H. and Lockwood would be the co-star in 2001: A Space Odyssey shortly after that Star Trek pilot was filmed

Definitely the first time I saw her 50-something years ago. It might be might favorite role of hers, too (I know Hot Lips has her problems, but I have always found her treatment in M*A*S*H kind of mean spirited).

Yes I agree. It's cringe worthy today.

[The Darknight Detective]

Yes I agree. It's cringe worthy today.

I first saw it in the '80s and while it is a great movie in many ways, there is a vein of misogamy running through it (though I hadn't heard of that word forty years ago ). Maybe it's old-fashioned chivalry on my part, but I have also never enjoyed seeing a woman humiliated in realty or through fiction.

I've never seen the movie, myself. My mother tells me she went to see it in theatre and was so disgusted she walked out part way through.

^^^wow, i did NOT know this.

I fell in love w. Sally Kellerman in 1986’s Back To School…:

That's very funny, because it sounds like your Mother was the very people the movie was satirizing

[Arachne]

Possibly. She can be a bit of a prude in some ways. (Although she's very liberal in others.) I think it was the misogyny that got to her, though.

I liked her in it, too, but a cutie like her with Rodney? Hey, I tell ya!

Yeah, there were a lot of people back then who might have agreed with the anti-Vietnam War (oops! - I mean, Korean ) sentiments, but still had problems with the movie, otherwise.

Mu own parents were only in their late twenties in 1970, so they could handle it better, though they liked the TV show more (same here, FWIW).

[Arachne]

Yeah, Mom liked the tv show just fine, too. (So did I, but I haven't seen it as an adult.)

[Iron Maiden]

Eventually they did treat the Margaret Houlian character with more respect in the TV show but I think in some early shows they did prank her.

They did, but without the meanspiritness, IMO. TV Hawkeye and Trapper John were a lot more likable than their movie counterparts.

There was a fair bit of that in it. But less than the average James Bond movie.

I don't really see the Bond films as misogynistic, though certainly pre-"women's lib."
