Subject:  Songs about movie stars

I'm looking for songs about movies, movie stars, particularly stars pre-1970.
For example, I have both Ricky Ian Gordon's and Christopher Berg's setting of
"Poem" which starts with the immortal words, "Lana Turner has collapsed!" I
also have a song by Leiber & Stoller called "Humphrey Bogart," "Oh to be a movie
star" from APPLE TREE, and am looking at a song by Gene Scheer which has
something to do with being at a party at Howard Hawks' house (although it's
written for baritone). Also, "Look at me, I'm Sandra Dee."

I'd rather have too much rep than not enough, so send it all my way (and if you
know where it can be located - anthology, score, whatever, include that!).

Thanks.

Chris
