How I wish I could have been a “fly on the wall” at Patricia Neal’s meeting with Anacin’s research scientists.

Fausto Fernós in the mid-90s in Chicago where he wrote for local
publications including Babble, edited by Jim Pickett. He’s worked at
several high-profile magazines in New York and was an editor for the
web-zine Blair. He’s fascinated by oddball divas, bombastic child
stars, and the everyday person capturing their unique performances for
an online audience.

Was she drunk when she filmed this?
I remember this one too! Do you believe she’s still alive? (82 years old!) She looked ancient then!
I loved Patricia Neal’s Anacin commercials when I was a kid. The other two I looked forward to were the Carol Lawrence “International Coffees”
commercials and the “I’m Rula Lenska” Alberto VO5 ones. There were a couple of other grade school queens that I hung out with, and we would all go around saying “Five minutes, Miss Lenska!” We weren’t too popular.
I think I remember seeing this commercial when I was very young, visiting my grandparents, watching grandma\’s \”stories\” on TV.
