Kim Novak

There is a great deal that you are not aware of. Rather than reading and learning from people who know that era far better that you do and ever will, you reply in a rude manner. The "Kim was the number one box office star in world" was making the rounds before you were born or thought of. Rather than reply in a rude, condescending manner you should inquire as to where and when that thought came to be, was it merely a public relations shot in the arm from Columbia, was it something Kim's publicist put out there? You might learn something. Whatever the case it's become a permanent part of Kim Novak's legend.
You are unwilling to believe this bit of Novak lore which is harmless but you would buy any trash you read about Kim or anyone without a shred of proof and repeat it incessantly. Before you attack the credibility of another poster, you should take a good long look at your own credibility or lack of it.
