I am sure that I speak for most members when I say that it most certainly will be worthwhile. Thank you so much for the Jean Kent interview, and I loved her frank opinion about Granger.

A belated Happy Birthday to Jean Kent. I'm not exatly sure what date her birthday fell on though as some web sites list it as being 21st June, yet others list her birthday as having occured yesterday (29th June). I've also seen her year of birth given as 1916 before, but I tend to believe 1921 is the correct year.

Jean Kent, another great talent wasted by the British film industry.

I have been a fan for over 60 years and have only ever seen her birthday listed as 21st June 1921, she and Jane Russell were born on the same day.

Default Jean Kent in 'Thriller'

Here is Jean as poor Mrs. Garrick, whose husband, played by Peter Dyneley, left her long ago, reducing
her to a child-like state - complete with doll! Their son was played by a young Christopher Cazenove:


"You are pretty", she says to lady detective Gayle Hunnicutt
Original ITV transmission: 2nd March 1974, when Devil Gate Drive by Suzi Quatro was Number 1

Can't imagine Jean being a fan of Suzi Q somehow, but you never know!

Of course, we've seen Miss Kent clutching a doll (alright, marionette then) before:

When you understand the past, the confusion of the present becomes clearer - John Betjeman.

Default Publicity photo + TVTimes interview, 8th August 1970

I've included this photo as a bonus to fill the gap created by the first part.

Is there anyone contributing to this thread who would describe themselves as a Jean Kent "expert"?

I have heard a very interesting story that she related to an author about Eric Portman and would love to discuss it (- in a "pm".)
