It's really a shame that only a couple of people have posted about Ethel. Even before I became really aware of her, I was at least familiar with her name, which made me think that she would have more fans. Hopefully she won't be forgotten by younger generations.

It kills me people like her are vitrually forgotten.
I think its because I grew up with the grandparents for awhile that I have an appreciation for the films of old.
For instance, I saw Debbie Reynolds live a few months ago. And wow.
I mean, I like the Stones, the Beatles, Red Hot Chili Peppers, but the PERSONALITIES of the old entertainers were so larger than life. Today its, who, Rob Schnieder.
I think its ashame they don't use people like Reynolds while they STILL CAN. -

I'm 22 and I think she's one of the classiest ladies to ever have graced the stage or screen. It's a shame indeed that Merman doesn't get more publicity than she does. Even though she passed over 20 years ago, her films are still a treat to watch. I just wish they'd release Merman's version of ANYTHING GOES onto DVD. I'm so very grateful that 20th Century-Fox finally released CALL ME MADAM onto DVD in 2004I 1c84just wish now that someone would restore and re-release the film soundtrack on CD.
