Wicked Witch of the West

Producer Mervyn Leroy's original idea for casting the Wicked Witch for The Wizard of Oz was inspired by Disney's adaption of Snow White - he wanted to make her slinky + seductive. He thought he'd found the perfect choice with actress Gale Sondergaard who'd won an Oscar the previous year for her Best Supporting Actress performance in his film Anthony Adverse.
Others however disagreed, thinking witches should be ugly. They attempted to give Sondergaard 'The Ugly Treatment' with make-up, but the actress herself decided she no longer wanted the role.

"In those days I was not about to make myself ugly! I have no regrets".

Interview, 1980 with Dick Cavett when she was 81

Theda Bara, ‘The Vamp’

The studios created a fictitious persona for Bara as a woman born in the Sahara ‘in the shadow of the Sphinx’ to an Italian Sculptor father and a French mother. They created an heir of mystery claiming she dabbled in the occult. Her contract requite that she wear a veil in public and only come out at night. They even mentioned the fact that her name was an anagram for ‘Arab Death’

Bara made more than 40 films in her career, but most were lost in the 1937 Fox vault fire and only 6 of her completed films remain.
