Jessica Walter 80, RIP


She did a great stalker crazy bitch predating Glenn Close in Play Misty For Me. She played a great snob in The Flamingo Kid.

An underrated beauty. (Maybe her acting wasn't underrated, but I think her beauty was.) More known for TV than films, I think. The movie I remember her most for is Grand Prix (1966). (I never saw Play Misty For Me.) But when it comes to TV, she was ubiquitous from the 1960s all the way to present day.

I would recommend that you watch Misty. In Clint Eastwood's directorial debut he plays a mellow DJ who has a one night stand with fan Jessica who acts badly when dumped. Meanwhile Clint is in hot pursuit of sexy Donna Mills. It contains Jessicas only nude scene and Donna has a skinny dipping scene so its got that going for it, which is nice.
