Wow, I love the Gamma One series and Lisa Gastoni. Did you see the recently circulated photo of three of the Talking Heads posed in front of the Wild Wild Planet poster?

No! Wild Wild Planet is one of my faves

Putting together my 1947 mix and there's a record from French singer Line Renaud, a quick google shows she is still alive at the age of 95

I was thinking I'd never seen her in anything except the two Hitchcocks, but no: also Pacific Heights (remember her), Citizen Ruth (no), and I Heart Huckabees (no).

The Harrad Experiment (1973) is an interesting one where Tippi Hedren features and her daughter Melanie Griffith and future son-in-law Don Johnson are also in the cast
