I ran over to your Awesome Blog! Love the Una Merkel, picture you posted. How fun is it to communicate from some one from Chile?! Greetings from Tucson, AZ. :)<br /><br />Monty, Thank you. I agree, Una Merkel is a wonderful acterss. I'm suprised she is not more well known.<br /><br />Bec, Thank you. I do not think I have seen Una Merkel, performance in, Summer and Smoke. I will add it to my "gotta see" list of movies.Dawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03476174860119487509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1668690844478666903.post-65034647196315567822010-05-21T16:13:22.547-07:002010-05-21T16:13:22.547-07:00Good write-up, Dawn.

It really gave her a chance to show depth in her acting.ClassicBeckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03591715859057540467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1668690844478666903.post-25678451896741808912010-05-21T15:52:05.325-07:002010-05-21T15:52:05.325-07:00Great post Dawn.

I remember her role as the best friend of Myrna Loy in "Evelyn Prentice", she has great lines there. And she was very good in "42nd street" too. <br />Some time ago I told a little anecdote about her, maybe you want to read it <a href="http://via-51.blogspot.com/2010/04/una-merkel.html" rel="nofollow">here.</a><br /><br />Greetings from Chile :)Clara Fercovichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04247553895885558509noreply@blogger.com
