The Torch Lady Roars


The Columbia Torch Lady has been decapitated, danced the hustle, replaced by Wilma Flintstone and questioned D-List movie producers. Before the 1959 Peter Sellers comedy The Mouse That Roared, we discover one of her fears.

 


Apparently, the Torch Lady is deathly afraid of mice. When she sees a mouse, she shrieks and runs off her pedestal. Other than the title of the film, this little vignette has nothing to do with the film itself.
