Carol Lynley passed away Tuesday at the age of 77 from a heart attack. Best remembered for her roles in 1972's "The Poseidon Adventure," "Return to Peyton Place" (1961), and "Blue Denim" (1959), a personal favorite of mine (which looks beautiful on the Twilight Time Blu ray, BTW).
She also starred in 1963's "Under the Yum Yum Tree" with Jack Lemmon, Dean Jones, Paul Lynde and Imogene Coca.a personal guilty pleasure. For those in a nostalgic mood, here's James Darren singing the oh-so 60's title tune: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ge4oLJVzCFY I remember asking my mom to grab me the 45 for "The Morning After" from Poseidon after seeing it for the first time. I told her Carol Lynley sang it, not realizing Maureen McGovern actually did the vocal. Mom looked a little foolish at the record store, but she got me my 45.
