I just found some interesting ST trivia on the internet: the late Phylliss Douglas/Yeoman Mears had a role as a young child in that American film classic Gone With The Wind. She played Bonnie Blue Butler opposite Clark Gable.

Cool.

That is very interesting news. As she was so young, I wonder if she had any recollection at all about that time?

Her biography says she was only 2 years old when they filmed Gone With The Wind, so she may have had fleeting memories of the event. She must have been bitten by the acting bug at a very early age.

Or kicked by the acting horse.

No, it threw her off. Didn't you watch the movie?

 

[plynch]

Okay, bucked by the acting horse.
