The smoldering Kim Novak stars as the title character in what is considered titan director Robert Aldrich’s (Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?) cheesiest film. It centers on the actress Lylah Clare as she is sinisterly molded into stardom by her Svengali-like director husband (Peter Finch). The molding includes a lesbian encounter—considered mighty racy in 1968. Warner Archive (www.wbshop.com). — by Nancy Ford
