Hayley Mills

[PennameWombat]

some of us might admit to her being their first crush...

Can’t think of any actor/actress I’ve ever crushed on.

A news anchor? Now… Kathleen Sullivan before she went to CNN. One of my then-soccer teammates was dating a reporter at the same TV station and I bugged her to invite her co-worker to come watch one of our games . Alas.

For sure my first crush was Annette in the Beach Party movies. Who I really wanted was Linda Ronstadt. OMG! That voice, that face, that body. Made me a puddle of desire.

I asked himself about Hayley Mills and he hardly knew anything about her movies, all he really knew was that her father was Sir John Mills, who starred in countless classic Brit war films like 'Ice Cold in Alex', 'The way to the stars', 'Dunkirk' (he has a thing about those old 'stiff upper-lip' movies, they fascinate him) and movies like 'Ryan's Daughter', 'Hobson's Choice', and 'Swiss Family Robinson.

Lots of nice pictures of her through the years, but in an era where you had Cousin Marilyn, Samantha Stevens, Jeannie, Ginger, Racquel, Joey Heatherton, Ann Margaret, Sally Fields, Annette Funicello and literally thousands of others, she wasn't a stand out.

Have to agree here; her name and face leaves an indelible blank in my memory

Hayley Mills was pleasant young woman in the day but her sister is who is seared in my memory. Juliet Mills was co star with Jack Lemon in a Billy Wilder directed, 1972 movie, Avanti. The film is a very pleasant exploration of infidelity in Italy and the scene I can't forget is where Juliet, wearing Jack Lemon's shirt after a tryst, has to reach up over her head into the top shelf in a closet. The hem of the shirt rises just above the folds of her butt.

A couple of years before Avanti, I talked my step father into seeing Barbarella. It was the beginning of the R rating and theaters were strick about under 18 for R films and my step dad though it was cool to take his 16 year old son to Barbarella. It made even less sense to me than 2001 did when I saw it a few months before. The sex in Barbarella was incomprenhensible to my 16 year old mind and most of the nudity was covered by camera angles later parodied in Austin Powers.

A few years later and I could see Avanti on my own, I'd had a real girlfriend in the interim, and the result is a film, and performance, that 50 years later I can't get out of my mind. Billy Wilder was a genius. Stanley Kubrick wasn't too bad either. Roger Vadim; not so much.

I don't think I ever saw a Hayley Mills movie other than Parent Trap.

I forgot her sister was Juliett Mills. I remember her from Nanny and the Professor.

I'm not sure I ever saw that movie, but like I said ...

Oddly enough, the first role of hers that comes to mind is Miss Bliss.

'Good Morning Miss Bliss' was the first season of what would become:

Which expanded the role of Lark Voorheis and brought us Tiffany Theissan and Elizabeth Berkley.

I can't look at that photo without thinking of the movie Showgirls. Elizabeth Berkeley was sexy and attractive but the movie was just appallingly badly written and she never lived it down.

Which for bad or worse brought Gina Gershon to prominence, who was decidedly NOT either of the Mills sisters.

Seems like an unusual celebrity to discuss at Literotica.

The thing I never understood about Hayley Mills in The Parent Trap, her most famous role, is she plays two American girls and she speaks with a British accent. It makes no sense at all.

Plenty of American actors, male and female, who are incapable of doing an English accent or a Scottish, Welsh or an Irish accent for that matter. Or incapable of doing an accent from any country.

But I do agree an actor should make the attempt or not do the part. Worst English accent of all time by an American? Dick Van Dyke.

I watched Glenn Close in Crooked House the other night. I could easily have believed that she was one of us.

My first movie crush, Jennifer Tilly, while watching Bound. Her costar, Gina Gershon, also tripped my trigger and the sex scene in the round, told me what my sexual orientation was. I was 14, watching it while the folks were away. Ooh la la, they can tie me, and spin around anytime they want.

^^^ 1996.

In 1983, she played Gina Srignoli in a few episodes of Hill Street Blues:

There was a time when the posh New England accents sounded closer to British English than to the mundane midwestern American English. I guess I just assumed Hayley was one of those snooty, high society Bostonians in her various Disney roles.

Upstate New Yorkers have a very distinctive sort of British Accent. Franklyn D. Roosevelt, Edward Herrmann, and Norman Lloyd come to my mind. My father met Mr. Lloyd several times back in the 80's and found him a very nice man, easy to talk to, with a fantastic memory. I say that because it was two years after they first met when, as luck would have it, they met again when pops was in LA and Lloyd came to him while he was eating lunch in a restaurant, and said, "Ron, how have been."

Sadly Mr. Norman Lloyd passed away recently short of his 107th birthday. Not a bad life, at all, though.
