In his autobiography Magic Hour, director Jack Cardiff remembered, "I cast a German girl to play the lead. She was perfect for the role. A few days later after engaging her, she was rushed to the hospital with a drug overdose and I never saw her again."

My Thoughts

I grew up watching the old Hammer horror movies on TCM and AMC (when it was commercial-free) during the 1990s. I've had my eye on the book Hammer Glamour: Classic Images From the Archives of Hammer Films for a while and finally got it along with The Art of Hammer: Posters From the Archive of Hammer Films. Hammer Glamour is more of an art book. It has biographies and photos of the actresses from the Hammer movies. I haven't read all of it but have glanced through it several times.
