Her New York Times obituary calls her a "movie star made for Technicolor".

One of my Fleming favorites is A CONNECTICUT YANKEE IN KING ARTHUR'S COURT. Not only was she spectacularly beautiful, but she did her own singing and it was lovely. She also recorded the film's songs with Bing for Decca.

Sad to hear of her passing; just a beautiful woman. Technicolor was in love with her. Rip.
