The Legend of Lylah Clare (1968) #WarnerArchive #WarnerBros #TheLegendofLylahClare
No one can touch Robert Aldrich when it comes to holding a mirror up to the self-absorbed self-deception of Hollywood. The director of What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? and The Big Knife turns the lens again to Tinseltown with this deliciously overheated mystery-melodrama. Kim Novak portrays an unknown chosen to star in a biopic of film goddess Lylah Clare, who died under mysterious circumstances on her wedding night. Two Best Actor Academy Award® winners,* Peter Finch as Lylah's obsessed widower and Ernest Borgnine as a loutish mogul, help stir a heady plot that reveals secrets, compulsions, perversions and murder as the naïve young actress becomes consumed by the identity of the dead star.
Directed By Robert Aldrich
Starring Kim Novak, Peter Finch, Ernest Borgnine

The original with T.Weld was on CBS Playhouse....check with IMDB.......It was a real masterpiece done LIVE.......I think it exists in a vault, but it was one of the reasons Weld became a cult goddess and had a film festival in NY at age 24 which sold out.
She also hated making films unless they were movies of the week where she could get in and out in four weeks.

The original version is a LOT better than this one. It's on UA-cam. I tried to post a link here, but it's not showing up now.
