There was Marilyn Monroe and then there was Carmen star Dorothy Dandridge, the first African-American woman nominated for a Best Actress Academy Award. The biopic Introducing: Dorothy Dandridge was obviously based on her and the starlet was played by Halle Berry. Kind of coincidental since both of the beauties were born in Cleveland, Ohio.

Miss Dandridge crossed my mind earlier today, a sultry woman indeed. Yes, she could have gotten it.
