Fay Wray in "King Kong"
- "Everyone's equal. Same chances of getting hit. Equal in the eyes of the rocket."
- To which she gives him her Fay Wray look, eyes round as can be, red mouth about to open in a scream, till he has to laugh. "Oh, stop." (p.57)
Fay Wray (1907-2004), Canadian-born American actress, is best remembered for her role as Ann Darrow, the blonde seductress of a gigantic, prehistoric gorilla in the classic horror/adventure film "King Kong" (1933). She wore a blonde wig over her naturally dark hair for the role. There have been claims the screams emanated from actress Julie Haydon, and dubbed to Wray, but that has been disputed.
