Chris Cantell Discusses Entertainment: Another Bond girl gone.
by Barbie Kunkelova
Deborah Kerr, Scottish actress who holds the record for the amount of Best Actress nominations, left us on October 16th, last Tuesday. She was born in year 1921 and during the 86 years of her Hollywood life she accomplished quite a bit; her name decorates one of the stars on the Walk of Fame in Los Angeles. Deborah's family was an ordinary one & her father was an architect and she had a brother nicknamed Teddy. She married twice during her adulthood, had two daughters and one step-daughter (thanks to the second husband). And spent most of her life in her Spanish and Swiss residences, but later returned back to Scotland in order to see more of her kids. Her "career" started with makings of the movie Contraband, but her shots were cut out. One merciful director assigned her a role in the movie "From Here to Eternity" where she shared a scene in waves of an ocean with Burt Lancaster. She also played a nun in Black Narcissus, a psychological thriller about nuns in Himalayas. From these scenes on, the offers for new jobs started swarming. She acted as a Bond girl in Casino Royale in 1967 (the one with David Niven in it). Maybe she was too much, just like Casino Royale & for one James Bond. As a theatre star, she debuted in Tea and Sympathy in 1953 on Broadway and started as a TV star in 1980s. In 1998, according to Wikipedia, she was appointed a Commander of the British Empire, but had to refuse -she died as an ill lady, she had the Parkinson's disease. Before the turnover, Deborah collected a neat selection of nominations: Academy, BAFTA, Emmy and Golden Globe Awards.
