Angie Dickinson plays the murderous political fascist Josie Ito in ABC's six-hour miniseries "Wild Palms" (continuing tonight and tomorrow at 10), and it makes just about as much nonsense as Liz's playing Martha. Still, despite the casting against type, "I wonder why they didn't think of me first," she wonders, as if truly puzzled. But then, she allows, "That's {my} ego."

Dickinson rejected the Marilyn Monroe/Jayne Mansfield style of overdone platinum blonde stardom, because it would narrow her acting options. At first, she allowed studios to lighten her naturally-brunette hair only to honey-blonde. Casting directors and audiences began to notice Dickinson's enigmatic charisma and her ironic, albeit seductive, delivery--at once femininely fluttery and undeniably edgy. She was armed with a fine physique, great legs, deepset brown eyes that could read as either warmly receptive or aloofly dismissive. Her striking face, which photographed as oval from the front but angular in profile, resembled that of a Venusian goddess. Her atypical screen presence initially caused critics to praise her-- if not always the films in which she played.

After appearing in TV mini-series like Pearl (1978), Dickinson returned to the big screen in Brian De Palma's thriller Dressed to Kill (1980), which earned her a 1981 Saturn Award for Best Actress. Loved by some and derided by others (largely for its violence and a certain crassness), the film featured Dickinson in a 35-minute role early in the film which ends with her character's brutal murder in an elevator. Critics hailed her performance and today the film is viewed as a serious entry in the macabre genre, with her silent stalking through the maze of a New York City museum being one of the film's stylistic highlights.
