I posted about a month ago a picture of Katherine Ross with Paul Newman, but she's worth her own post. My parents had the good policy to let me see relatively adult movies before I was really old enough to see them; nowadays kids are so locked into kid culture (and society produces so much more kid culture), that there is a complete disconnect between what adults watch and read and listen to and what kids watch and read and listen to. Anyway, back in the late 1960s I saw Katherine Ross in The Graduate and Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (as well as in a John Wayne movie called Hellfighters) and she was pretty much my idea of what a really great girl looked like. Perhaps not incidentally, twenty years or so later I married a tall slender girl with long dark hair.
