WHOZAT?
THE WIZARD OF OZ (1939)
WHAT'S MY LINE?

     Jean Harlow was a Hollywood star who seems to be as interesting today as she was during her life.

     Her marriage to Paul Bern, an M-G-M executive some twenty years older than she was, also remains in the public conciousness about La Belle Harlow.
      The house he built for her is still a private residence but . . . is there more to the story then just meets the eye?
     Reportedly, Jean didn't like the house because it was too far from Hollywood's social life but Bern still put the deed in her name as a wedding present.  That may have been what they argued about the night before he died . . . or not.
      But check out these links for more:

Jean Harlow and Paul Bern House

This is the excerpt of a longer documentary - Hollywood Ghost Story - that deals with both Jean Harlow and Sharon Tate . . . who both died tragically way too young.
 

     This is another interesting link but . . .
WARNING!
There is a picture of Paul Bern after he allegedly killed himself.  There isn't anything gruesome about it . . . you can hardly tell that what you do see is Bern but some people might choose not to check the link out.
