Ann-Margret, Pamela Tiffin, and Carol Lynley in The Pleasure Seekers

Ann-Margret, Pamela Tiffin, and Carol Lynley in The Pleasure Seekers

Ann-Margret, Pamela Tiffin, and Carol Lynley 

The Pleasure Seekers is a fun 1964 film (directed by Jean Negulesco) that has a lot of the charisma and charm of its star Ann-Margret.

For whatever reasons, the film wasn’t a hit when it was released – whether there were simply too many other movies at the time or the public was looking for something different at the time… it simply didn’t do as well as it should have.

In addition to Ann-Margret, the film stars Carol Lynley, Pamela Tiffin, Anthony Franciosa, Gene Tierney, and André Lawrence.

You can find The Pleasure Seekers (link to the dvd) on Amazon. I don’t believe it’s available on Prime Video – I’ll let you know if I ever see it listed!

Ann-Margret, Pamela Tiffin, and Anthony Franciosa: The Pleasure Seekers

Ann-Margret, Pamela Tiffin, and Anthony Franciosa in The Pleasure Seekers

Ann-Margret, Pamela Tiffin, and Anthony Franciosa

I’ve always loved Ann-Margret and have considered her to be one of my favorite actresses since I was old enough to watch movies. Love her to distraction. I’ve recently become more familiar with Pamela Tiffin and wonder what took me so long to watch her films! She’s wonderful and I’ve become a huge fan.

I think my problem (if you want to really call it a problem) is the same one a lot of other old Hollywood fanatics run into – we watch so many movies from the Silent Era, the Thirties, and the Forties, that we sometimes neglect the Fifties, Sixties, and Seventies – especially the Sixties. Yet, truth be told, there’s a lot of GOLD in 60’s Hollywood!

I’ve been trying to make up for lost time by watching more movies and television shows from this particular decade and I am totally in love. The fashion, the cars, the interior decorations and design, the hairstyles, the music, the dialogue… like I said, pure GOLD.

The Pleasure Seekers (1964) is a fun, very colorful film and one I think you’ll really enjoy. The film stars Ann-Margret, Carol Lynley, Pamela Tiffin, Anthony Franciosa, and Gene Tierney (in her last film).

The Pleasure Seekers is available on Amazon (link to the dvd).

Ann-Margret, Carol Lynley, and Pamela Tiffin - The Pleasure Seekers

Love this photo of Ann-Margret, Carol Lynley, and Pamela Tiffin! The three beautiful actresses starred together in The Pleasure Seekers (1964) and, for whatever reasons, the film didn’t do as well as it, honestly should have.

It’s a lot of fun and, in many ways, is kind of the 60’s version of How to Marry a Millionaire. I really love it.

Ann-Margret believed that the lack of success was due to the fact that audiences weren’t ready to see her in an adult, lady of the world type of role because they knew her mainly from Bye, Bye Birdie. I truly think she makes a great case.

Hopefully audiences, today, will discover the film and give it the attention it deserves.

An Ann-Margret, Carol Lynley, and Pamela Tiffin  fan can certainly hope, can’t she?!

Ann-Margret, Carol Lynley, and Ann-Margret

When I first began Hollywood Yesterday, I had a grand plan, right on par with world domination… okay, maybe not that grand, but you get the point. I intended to have this particular old Hollywood blog for the 1930s-1950s movies and classic television. I, then, planned (after Hollywood Yesterday got off the ground) to create a separate blog for films and television from the delicious 60s (uncommonly fun in their own right).

However, being the mother of three daughters (who I homeschooled) – on top of having multiple other blogs in various niches – slowed my roll considerably.

World domination (and Ann-Margret) would have to wait.

Along the way, I fell in love with silent movies and began adding silent film stars to the blog. Around then it hit me, “Why the heck not add the wonderful stars and films from the 60s as well?” After all, I enjoy them as much as anything and a few of the stars from this period are among my absolute favorites (Ann-Margret, Pamela Tiffin, Carol Lynley, Elvis…).

I’m excited to be adding these colorful and fun stars to the blog – they bring so much energy and excitement, don’t they? There’s just something extra about the 60s and I am SO here for it!

Today’s picture of the day actually includes three of my favorite actresses from this era: Ann-Margret, Carol Lynley, and Pamela Tiffin. It doesn’t get much better than this. This is a promo pic from the 1964 film The Pleasure Seekers (Amazon link to the dvd).

Welcome to Hollywood Yesterday!

Ann Sheridan, It All Came True

Ann Sheridan
My name is Joi (“Joy”) and I created Hollywood Yesterday as my personal tribute to Old Hollywood. It’s my effort to help keep the stars from Old Hollywood, Classic Television, and Old Radio Shows alive and shining forever. Old Hollywood was positively magical and I see no reason for the magic to ever die.

Be warned, I am (by nature) overtly positive, I never take anything too seriously, I say extraordinary so often you’d think I invented the word, and I overuse exclamation points to distraction. I’m perpetually over-caffeinated.. we’ll blame that.

Olivia de Havilland

Olivia de Havilland, The Adventures of Robin Hood

My main goal with Hollywood Yesterday is to keep the names, faces, and films of the stars that mean so much to me shining brightly. When I’m guilty of focusing more time on my personal favorites (such as Olivia de Havilland) than other stars, I hope you’ll forgive me. I am, by all indications, very human!

Also, please know that I try to keep my posts (except for book reviews) short and to the point, so you can enjoy the pictures, grab the information, and get back to your life. I don’t appreciate anything that’s overly wordy, so I don’t want to do that to others. For better or worse, I write as I talk, so if you ever feel like you’re reading the words of someone who’s a cross between Lucy Ricardo, Daisy Duck, and a Jerry Lewis character, that’s just because you are!

Wait. What did I just admit to?? 

Barbara Stanwyck Quotes

Another personal absolute favorite of mine is Barbara Stanwyck. Not only was she beautiful and outrageously talented, she was exceptionally bright, charismatic, and colorful. This growing collection of Barbara Stanwyck Quotes will give you an idea of just how colorful she was!
