Yvonne De Carlo - Biography - IMDb
Hollywood has never been shy about using sex to sell its movies, or its movie stars. In fact, in all its guises — from the kiss that inevitably ends a hokey romantic comedy to the sweaty, graphic and often clumsy carnality of today's R-rated and NC films — sex has always been the film industry's most trustworthy, enduring commodity. Sure, violence is a perennial favorite, and people will almost always pay to see a good sci-fi or fantasy flick. But in the end, very few movies in any genre manage to hold viewers' attention without at least one unapologetic, unmistakable nod to humanity's mysterious and forever fascinating mating rituals.

The film that launched De Carlo into stardom was Salome, Where She Danced , an unintentionally ridiculous saga of a Mata-Hari-type Viennese dancer who has an opera house built for her and a town named after her in the American west. Peggy Middleton, her real name, would never have done. In fact, the Canadian-born Middleton took her screen name from her mother's maiden name. When Peggy was three, her father abandoned the family, forcing her mother, then only 17, to become a waitress. But her mother recognised show-business potential in her daughter and enrolled her in a dance and drama school in Vancouver.
