*Heh. My grandfather had to escort Veronica Lake around his military base one evening back when he was a WWII marine. He doesn't have anything nice to say about her.... I wonder how many of these screen queens would actually have been nice people to hang around with. Hmm.*

Like so many other Hollywood icons, Veronica Lake's life didn't end well. Her Hollywood career was basically over by the early 1950's. By the 1960's, she was working as a barmaid, and living in cheap hotels.

As she herself was supposed to have said -- "she was a rebel". I interpet that to mean that she was hard to get along with. She wasn't well-liked by many individuals who knew her personally. Most self-proclaimed 'rebels' are little more than self-centered people who attempt to justify their own inherent selfishness by proclaiming themselves to be rebels or mavericks -- in an attempt to somehow turn their bad/rude behavior into a virtue.
