After "Betty Vernon" nicks Pops Gaylord to the tune of 40 Large . . .
4 December 2020
Warning: Spoilers
. . . (that's about a $1.2 million "breach of promise" settlement, adjusted for inflation) during the first scene of TOO MANY KISSES, Junior G. soon protests "But Dad, all I did was kiss her!" When a Tinsel Town character or Real Life Hollywood starlet is introduced to the American Public as a "Betty," it's always been a lead pipe cinch that she's some sort of gold-digger, strumpet, money-crazed opportunist, street-walker, con woman, harlot or otherwise depraved dolly. When Warner Bros. was casting the title role of JEZEBEL in the 1930's, their casting department naturally chose the first random "Betty" it stumbled across. A TOO MANY KISSES newspaper headline indicates that Ms. Vernon is the SEVENTH wicked wench to winch Big Bucks out of Pop Gaylord's checking account. Doubtless the first half dozen extortionists also spelled their given names B-E-T-T-Y, or variations there of.
