    It's hard to say what was going through old Peter's mind when he hooked up with Louise. Personally, I think it's a bit tasteless but the two saw something in each other and obviously some love was there. I suppose I can't begrudge anyone who thinks they find love. I think Peter was an asshole for blaming Hef for Dorothy's death though. Peter was just pissed because Hef called his relationship with Louise (when she was an underage girl mind you) for what it was - highly inappropriate.

    One of a kind

    Like I've always said, Dorothy Stratten was one of a kind. Her sister is pretty, but Dorothy was a show stopper. Dorothy Stratten once stopped traffic in Times Square while filming "They All Laughed" because everyone wanted to look at her. Name one actress or model today that could do that.

    When I hear this song, it always reminds me of Dorothy Stratten. I found out later that it was included in the movie about her life " Star 80". It is also on the web page that you posted Miho. Good call.

I mean he already killed her...why leave her like that. But yeah that pic realy got to me too.....I winder if you used luminal or whatever that stuff is called how much blood would show up...
    Actually, according to the police report, she was found lying on the floor, not in the sex swing. The sex swing was there, in the room set up for "rear position entry" (that is seriously in the report) but she was on the floor. I think the portrayal of her position is fairly accurate in that disgusting Hustler photo. Except the brain matter, I doubt there was that much of it. And Paul the Bastard was lying on the floor at the end of the bed and the gun was under him, so his position is not accurate.

    Actually Dorothy's torso was half on the bed and her knees were on the floor if u read Peter Bogdanovich's book "The Killing of the Unicorn" that is how the book begins. And it wasn't a sex swing is was a sex chair

    It sounds like only one shoulder was on the bed as her legs and her right shoulder were on the carpet. And from this description, she was not in the sex chair, but near it:
    [. Decedent Hoogstraten was cool to the touch, lying semi-crouched across the end of a low bed. There were live black ants on the body, no maggots or flys. She was lying with both legs on the carpet, and right shoulder on the carpet with her buttocks raised.
    Near decedent Hoogstraten’s head, but at an angle away from her, a “Love Seat” sexual appliance was on the floor. It was set into a position for possible rear entry intercourse.

    I have heard several different versions but I think that PB version is probably the one that is most accurate.

    If u watch the THS about Dorothy the cop at the scene told one story. Richard Dianda(sp) is his name, and on another show about D he said something different...I think what he said was about her finger tip that was blown off first he said right hand then he said left hand on another show

    If my vcr wasn't broken I could tell u what it was he said

    I wonder if anyone is ever going to do another movie about her life. I think that it is one amazing story.

    If you mean she was taken off the Actors and Actresses thread you are right. She was an actress but someone here knows better apparently.

    From the FAQ again for you John:

    Some people, like Frank Sinatra, fall under multiple categories, but if there is no existing thread, ask yourself what the person was best and more successful at, then start a thread in the appropriate category.
    She was best known for and most successful at being a Playboy Playmate (Hello Star80.). That's why she was put back here after a very short stint in A&A, which was just the result of a merging error.

    Wow! That's rough! I always enjoyed her films, limited as they may be.

    I agree, too crazy, and stupit.

    Check out this You Tube video.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dIQO1pED22M The music goes great with the images.

    Her image was used for the front cover of Aerosmith's single "love in an elevator".

    Cover Girl Song

    Cover girl you've come a long way
    New Mercedes in the driveway
    Oh oh, she's just a small town girl at heart
    I'm concerned with what they say
    Reputation on display
    Oh how people like to talk.

    I saw her picture in a magazine row
    Blue eyes shinin by the cellophane glow
    Tonight she's giving it all away, she's all right
    My Cover Girl

    Five years in eighteen months
    She got everything all at once
    She moved out that's when he moved in
    Cover Girl it's such a damn waste
    You were more than just a pretty face
    I never thought I'd never see you again

    I saw her picture in a magazine row
    Blue eyes shinin by the cellophane glow
    Tonight she's giving it all away, she's all right
    My Cover Girl

    SOLO

    I saw her picture on the 6-o clock news
    Just read about the cover girl blues

    The Best Was Yet To Come

    Just a small town

    girl in the city lights


    The best was yet to come
    Then lonely days turned to endless nights
    The best was yet to come

    How were you to know
    That you would be the lucky one
    Ain't it funny how time flies
    When the best is yet to come

    You can cry yourself to sleep at night
    You can't change the things you've done
    You had it there then it slipped away
    Yeah you left the your song unsung

    Even through your tears
    I never saw you come undone
    What's so good about goodbye
    When the best was yet to come

    I find myself thinkin' about yesterday
    When you were and livin' in a dream
    In the moment that it takes
    You find you made your first mistake
    Like the setting sun...
    You turn around it's gone

    Just a small town girl who had it made
    Or so the story goes
    She had it there then it slipped
    Oh - how was she to know

    Even through her tears
    I never saw her come undone
    Ain't it funny how time flies
    When the best is yet to come
    What's so good about goodbye
    When the best was yet to come
    Lyrics: The Best was yet to Come, Bryan Adams [end]

    And that's three.

    Californication Song
    lyrics:Californication
    Psychic spies from China
    Try to steal your mind's elation
    Little girls from Sweden
    Dream of silver screen quotations
    And if you want these kind of dreams
    It's Californication
    It's the edge of the world
    And all of western civilization
    The sun may rise in the East
    At least it settles in the final location
    It?s understood that Hollywood
    Sells Californication
    Pay your surgeon very well
    To break the spell of aging
    Celebrity skin is this your chin
    Or is that war your waging
    Chorus:
    First born unicorn
    Hard core soft porn
    Dream of Californication
    Dream of Californication
    Marry me girl be my fairy to the world
    Be my very own constellation
    A teenage bride with a baby inside
    Getting high on information
    And buy me a star on the boulevard
    It's Californication
    Space may be the final frontier
    But it's made in a Hollywood basement
    Cobain can you hear the spheres
    Singing songs off station to station
    And Alderon's not far away
    It's Californication
    Born and raised by those who praise
    Control of population everybody's been there and
    I don't mean on vacation
    Chorus
    Destruction leads to a very rough road
    But it also breeds creation
    And earthquakes are to a girl's guitar
    They're just another good vibration
    And tidal waves couldn't save the world
    From Californication
    Pay your surgeon very well
    To break the spell of aging
    Sicker than the rest
    There is no test
    But this is what you're craving
    Chorus

    I was researching roller disco for its 30th anniversary and decided to post the video of Dorothy rollerskating in the Roxy from They All Laughed. I'm sure youtube will take it down some day, but whatever, it's adorable when she turns around and falls on top of John Ritter. So amazingly beautiful...
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_VUfxSf_Mw



    By the way, there's a place where you can buy the "Playboy Roller Disco & Pajama Party" on dvd that she's wearing that green bikini/striped tube sock from...

    Loved her in Galaxina. A few of the other cast members have also passed on. I remember watching this movie as a kid on HBO, at my uncle's house in Long Island.

    She would be FIFTY on February 28. On August 14, she will have been dead for THIRTY years.
    Sad that being so horribly killed at twenty is now the basis of her lasting fame.

    http://www.seeing-stars.com/ImagePag...avePhoto.shtml

    Who wrote the epitaph?
    One wants to think that under different circumstances, Dorothy could have survived her early poor choices, learned something, and moved on as most 20-year-olds do.
    But some people just don't let that happen.

    The epitaph is from Hemmingway's A farewell to arms Dorothy was reading it at the time she was murdered

    Thirty years is a long time. Think of all the people and things that have come and gone.

    That song by Human League "Don't You Want me?" always reminds me of Dorothy.

    pics

    Still no dead pics??? **Sorry I should say, I really do have respect for the deceased celebs. Esp the ones that died young and beautiful. I don;t know what the rules are so if dead pics are not allowed I do apologize and ask that you not ban me for asking.

    Secondly I am a huge fan of hers: I have both Dorothy's Playboys and book:Killing of Unicorn and have her E!THS I watch over and over and it still saddens me.



    & my other question: If the roomate Steven Cushner knew about the P.I. Paul hired, then to me, he too is a little guilty as well. He should have told Dorothy or done something to let her know she was being followed.


    Thank you.

    I'm probably going to end up posting a forum-wide announcement about this and incorporating it into the rules, but please listen:

    Quoting a comment that you think is totally out of line or offensive only gives legs to that comment. It doesn't matter if you quote it to say, "Shame on you," or whatever. What you are doing is taking the comment and doubling the number of places it is written. Then someone else sees it and quotes it and now you have the offending comment in three times as many places as it was originally. And so on.

    And the more something is repeated, the more it sinks in. So if someone writes, "All Greek men are slimy criminals," and you are a Greek man that takes offense, almost all you are accomplishing by quoting the remark is legitimizing it. And the more ridiculous the original comment, the less helpful it is to quote it.

    If someone says an individual deserved a disease and you quote him, to me, as an administrator, you are lending some level of support to his view because you are repeating it and reinforcing it in the minds of readers that otherwise would have just skipped past it or who had a hard enough time reading it in the first place and would rather not see it dredged up again.

    Do not quote posts that break forum rules.

    Poor Dorothy. Why did she even have anything to do with this scumbag.? Even if there was no Playboy, the same thing could have happened. Possibly he thought Dorothy was gonna become big and rich and was jealous. The same thing could have still happened. She would have just got sick of the low-life and left him anyway. These poor great gals see good in everyone, even low-lifes. These low-lifes have the courage to approach them and chat them up and ask them out. The poor girls say yes and fall in love with these pieces of crap. Very old story. They see good in everyone. We shouldn't let these pieces of crap get beautiful women. You see a beautiful woman go up to her, be yourself and ask her out. Have courage. These frickin low-lifes have it. Many great gals fall into the same trap. Seeing good in some no-good scum-bag. Hugh Hefner knew he was bad news. He wanted nothing to do with him. Rot In Hell. Paul , you filthy loser scumbag.

    Unfortunately James, Dorothy probably never would have left Paul...Her first serious boyfriend was a big piece of shit just like paul....

    Dorothy had worked since she was an early teen to help her mom with bills and what not...She saved money to buy this guy a gift a ring if I remember correctly and the got into a fight one night and he destroyed the ring she was just lucky that this guy was none with her because that relationship would have never ended....Her father abandoned the family and she had no male to look to for guidance, she was so needy for male approvel... I suppose the old cliché is true woman only want guy who will treat them as a doormat

    it is ability true that Paul knew Dorothy was his ticket to the goodlife....Chip Clark a "friend" of Paul and Dorothy's said that when Dorothy started to distance herself from Paul, that Paul was frantic over (wait for it wait for it) MONEY......Not the fact that he was losing the one person on this earth to ever love him unconditionally...

    And lets face it had it not been for Peter Bogdanovich Dorothy never would have never had the courage to leave Paul....the biggest tragedy is the plain and simple fact that Dorothy was a pupet.....Paul pulled the strings, Heffner pulled them and Peter did just the same....

    i do not like Peter I think is a sick person, he tried to clone Dorothy spending hundreds and thousands of dollars to make her sister look as much like Dorothy as plastic surgery would allow.....When Nelly Dorothy's mom found out that Louise had married Peter she said "now I've lost two daughters."

    Something I found.....

    In Coquitlam, Dorothy Stratten had attended Centennial High School, a large suburban school which then had about 1,200 students. A friend, Leslie Buchanan, recalls: "I remember being in a typing class with Dorothy. She was taking a lot of business classes as we called them. I do remember her being friendly but quiet, and always looking good in her Seafarer jeans. She wore clogs, too, which I wasn't sure if it was because she was Dutch or because they were 'cool' at the time."
    [SIZE=3] The sixties were over, and the Doors and Stones had been replaced by KISS, Canned Heat--heavy metal bands. Leslie remembers that girls dressed in tight T-shirts and wore their hair like (a young) Farrah Fawcett. Drugs were available: lots of students did "acid as well as marijuana." [/SIZE]

    [SIZE=2]Dairy Queen where Dorothy worked [/SIZE]
    [SIZE=3] Centennial classmates remember Dorothy as "sweet and kind." Someone who had a lot of girlfriends and a pre-Snider boyfriend whom no one is able to recall. "The crowd that Dorothy hung out with were party people," Leslie remembers. "They weren't the sports crowd, just kind of a very cool group." [/SIZE]
    [SIZE=3]In between typing classes, Dorothy and Leslie would chat--talking about school and typical teenage subjects: clothes, music, boys. Leslie recalls: "The picture of Dorothy I have my mind's eye is of her in the hallway looking her very beautiful self and wondering how some girls could have that much going for them. I guess I was wrong, but 23 years ago those were my thoughts[/SIZE]
