Synopsis

These 20 heroines have portrayed imperilled sirens in science fiction, horror, film noir and mystery movies from the 1930s to the 1960s. Some - like Sandy Descher, who confronted the giant ants of "Them!" - were only girls when they faced their screen perils. Others -such as Mary Murphy, who played opposite Marlon Brando in "The Wild One" - were leading ladies in other film genres. Yet others came from outside the acting world. Each interview is preceded by an introduction. The interviewees include Ramsay Ames, Claudia Barratt, Jean Byron, Linda Christian, Sandy Descher, Faith Domergue, Amanda Duff, Evangelina Elizondo, Margaret Field, Mimi Gibson, Marilyn Harris, Kitty de Hoyos, Donna Martel, Joyce Meadows, Mary Murphy, Noreen Nash, Cynthia Patrick, Paula Raymond, Joan Taylor and June Wilkinson.
