I am absolutely blown away that no one on these boards knew that the female lead, Enid, played by Margaret Field is actually Sallie Field's mom. I knew this 40 years ago when she was playing the flying nun. She was also married to Jock Mahoney who used to play Yancy Derringer. Oh for the good old days.
shareWhat makes you think no one knew that? Just might not have been worthy of any particular comment. (By the way, it's "Sally" with a 'y'!)
But on the subject, take a look at the illustration for the movie poster of this film (on the back covers of both the DVD and VHS). The artist certainly went to great lengths to enhance Ms. Field's breast size -- no wonder the alien seems so interested in her!
Irony abounds doesn't it, especially in showbiz. Margaret's boobs surreptitiously enhanced in 1951, and her daughter's boobs deliberately enhanced 30 years on. Yet another irony: William Schallert starring in a dopey tv sitcom 15 years later in which he plays the father of teenaged Patty Duke, while Margaret Field's daughter stars in an equally dopey sitcom as Gidget.
shareI don't see any "irony" in two different performers, with thoroughly unconnected careers, each having starred in completely unrelated sitcoms.
