Comparison Photo of the Week, Sharon and Bo Derek, "The Fearless Vampire Killers" online and More

Here is the photo comparsion of the week:

Don't you think that American professional volleyball player, sports announcer, fashion model and actress Gabrielle Reece looks like Sharon in this advertisement?


Sharon and Bo Derek?


From the 1967 movie 'Don't Make Waves' with Tony Curtis. The slowmotion, long blonde hair and gold bikini inspired the movie '10' ten years later with Bo Derek.


Has anyone else heard this.  I can see it in the videos below that they are comparible in the sense that Tony Curtis looks at Sharon much like Dudley Moore looked at Bo.

John Derek back in his heydays.

Another thing that Bo and Sharon have in common is that they were both photographed by John Derek (Bo's late husband).

Here is a person who I am in total agreement over Sharon.  He says:
This is a film (The Fearless Vampire Killers) by Roman Polanski. Most film buffs are well aware of his history and the history of his late wife and co-star, Sharon Tate. This upload is meant to illustrate that Art (in this case film art) stands on its own. It is separate from the history and person who creates it. What happened to Sharon Tate was horrible. But, Sharon Tate “is” a beautiful actress, and her performance here is excellent. This celebrates that fact. *now a word for those who watch just to comment on what happened to her. You may not be intelligent enough to realize it. But these comments about her death is an assault not on me (the uploader) but on Sharon Tate. She deserves to be remembered for her life NOT HER DEATH. Those who continuously mention her murderers are just fans( of the Killers), who love the sick horror of what happened to her. *I’m also aware that these comments are coming from a very small group of people here on youtube. (usually the same person on different accounts) I hope this does not distract you too much, or lessen your enjoyment of this wonderful film. Enjoy.


This comes from his site where he has apparently uploaded the film "The Fearless Vampire Killers" :

Shelley Berman today.

Also, as you know I have been trying to contact people who knew Sharon from time to time.  Sometimes it is hard to say who knew her in the Sixties and who didn't?  She and Roman definitely met a lot of people.  So I asked Shelley Berman, who is a comedian, writer, teacher, and actor who is now 84 if by chance he knew Sharon.  He replied kindly, "I regret I did not know Sharon Tate, except by her talent and her horrible death, in our very neighborhood (Hollywood)."  Thanks to Mr. Berman for mentioning Sharon's talent.  I'll let you know what else I find in the future.
