In 1984, I saw her in a Houston supermarket. She'd gotten rotund, and no one else paid any attention to her. She looked wonderful in a simple brown pantsuit with a large black belt, flat heeled shoes, light makeup. There she was, pushing a supermarket cart like any other shopper, looking somewhat depressed because the store was packed, and she knew she'd have quite a long wait in a checkout lane. She pushed her cart into the aisle next to mine. It was unmistakable who she was. When she realized I'd recognized her, she dropped her eyelids, and I, not being a clod, didn't look at her again.

The unforgettable star of "Laura" , "Leave her to heaven", "The ghost and Mrs. Muir" and "Night and the city" was one of the most beautiful and elegant actresses ever to appear in the screen.

My god, even live on TV such poise and grace and charm! Tierney is sensational.

Gene Tierney made an overbite absolutely beautiful.

Gene Tierney’s beauty was stunning.

Only Virna Lisi and Hedy Lamar come close to the beauty of Gene Tierney. My favorite Gene Tierney movie is "The Ghost and Mrs. Muir" and then "Laura" then "Heaven Can Wait" and then "Leave Her to Heaven"! I am a Merchant Marine and her opposite of Rex Harrison as Captain Greg is one of my all time favorite movies. Her husband Oleg Cassini was an incredible talent in his own right and a heavy influence on the style of the 60s when I was growing up. She is also a tragic figure having contracted measles from a fan while pregnant. She played opposite of some great leading men (as per the aforementioned movies) Rex Harrison, Dana Andrews, Don Ameche, Cornell Wilde, etc. etc.

All them ladies looked beautiful. Their hair so cute

1957 would be a tough year from Ms. Tierney. According to wikipedia: "In late December 1957, Tierney, from her mother's apartment in Manhattan, stepped onto a ledge 14 stories above ground and remained for about 20 minutes in what was considered a suicide attempt.[14] Police were called, and afterwards, Tierney's family arranged for her to be admitted to the Menninger Clinic in Topeka, Kansas. The following year, after treatment for depression, she was discharged. Afterwards, she worked as a sales girl in a local dress shop with hopes of integrating back into society,[14] but she was recognized by a customer, resulting in sensational newspaper headlines. Years later, she would make a comeback of sorts in 1980, with her last appearance in the television series Scruples, which I remember well
