they wouldn't have been on the big screen had they been "slept on" lol
the more apropo cliche is probably "before my time", cuz they probably had all the fanfare that you wanted them to have in their day, but now it's a different day, different chicks

Guy she married that period was OD abusive. Beautiful woman, highly flawed individual. She wanted validation.
Hard to say she didn't play herself, had a lot of Hollywood white men not wife her because they wanted to "keep their career" or wanted her as a mistress.
The white man that did wife her used her to attract business to his restaurant. After Carmen Jones, because of Otto meddling, her career fell off a cliff. Couple movies that ain't hit the same, lost her money from bad investments, daughter became a ward of the state, and she died in bankruptcy. Can't say it was tragic, she knew what she was up against. Lotta black people glamorize Hollywood before the CRM ended, Dorothy Dandridge was a huge casualty. I think she the archetype for lots of black women in entertainment today.
A highly slept on black actress from the same time, Francine Everett.
Offered to be Hollywood, turned down racially demeaning roles, and left the business:

Judy Pace was that chick and was married to MLB player Curt Flood that helped pros get free agency money.

Truth be told Dorothy Dandridge although she was the it girl was color struck like a mofo. She tried to get her bigtime Hollywood producer/swirl boyfriend Otto Preminger to fire Brock Peters from the film Porgy & Bess cast because she couldn't stomach his black melanin while filming.
One of my uncles used to see her in the rich section of Greenwich Conn back in the day while working there.
Either Cos Cob or Old Greenwich.
My pops knew Judy Pace during the brief time he lived in LA. He knew her since one of his brehs knew her then (first) husband Don Mitchell, the Black actor on Ironsides
