- Barbara Eden -- Dreamy Jeannie
Due to network censorship Barbara Eden was forbidden to bare her navel for the entire series run. It would not be established that Jeannie actually had a navel until Eden wore a redesigned costume in the movies. - A Midsummer Night's Dream -- Stage
The crowning glory of pictorial realism in productions of A Midsummer Night’s Dream came in 1900 under the direction of Sir Herbert Beerbohm Tree’s at Her Majesty’s Theatre in London. Like Daly, Beerbohm Tree employed battery-operated lights to illuminate the fairies, including lights placed on Oberon’s breastplate and crown. Many of the fairies were children, one of whom was suspended above the stage. Beerbohm Tree’s most notorious addition came with the 1911 revival when live rabbits appeared following trails of bran around the stage. It was no coincidence that Beerbohm Tree chose to stage A Midsummer Night's Dream when England was entangled in the Transvaal war with the Boers, the seeming beginning of the end for "good old England." A Midsummer Night's Dream had long been a celebration of imperial power — the original production honored Elizabeth I, Purcell’s The Fairy Queen paid tribute to William and Mary, and Vestris’ revival hailed the young Queen Victoria. It soon came to be regarded as a celebration of British culture and after 1890 received constant performance in England by all levels of performers and companies. - Midsummer Night's Dream, A -- William Shakespeare

A Midsummer Night's Dream begins with two sets of lovers, Lysander and Hermia and Helena and Demetrius. Unfortunately for Helena, Demetrius no longer loves Helena, instead falling for Hermia. Hermia's father Egeus ... wants Hermia to marry Demetrius. Unable to change his daughter's mind, Egeus calls upon The Duke of Athens, Theseus to ensure Hermia marries Demetrius. Theseus himself will marry Hippolyta, the Queen of the Amazons in four days time. This results in Hermia being given a choice under the Athenian law; marry Demetrius, become a nun or face death. - Emir Kusturica -- Arizona Dream
After attempting to deal with the party bureaucracy in 1989, Kusturica returned to his fascination with gypsies in Time of the Gypsies (Dom Za Vjesanje). Infused with gypsy spirituality and magic symbolism, it explores the gypsy child-slave trade from Yugoslavia to Italy. This was followed by Arizona Dream in 1993, his first, and, to date, only English language film. - Natalie Portman -- Jude Law
ยท Natalie Portman joins the cast of the remake of the Danish love-triangle drama Brothers, in which she'll play the sister-in-law boinked by dreamy-eyed homewrecker Jake Gyllenhaal while sleepy-eyed soldier Tobey Maguire is off fighting in Afghanistan. [Variety] - Butterfly Mcqueen -- Midsummer Night's Dream
Butterfly McQueen is best remembered as Prissy, the maid with the high squeaky voice who didn't "know nothin' 'bout birthin' babies" in the classic "Gone With the Wind" (1939). 5Born Thelma McQueen in Tampa, FL, she began her acting career when producer-director George Abbott hired her for the Broadway show "Brown Sugar" in 1937. McQueen became a permanent member of the Abbott Acting Company. During her stint with the company, she gained her famous nickname after dancing a butterfly ballet in a production of "A Midsummer Night's Dream". She earned her greatest stage recognition in "What a Life" and during its run was offered the role of Prissy. While the part verged on stereotype (a dimwitted slave), McQueen brought a comic pathos to her portrayal. Like many black actors in 1940s Hollywood, McQueen found few challenging roles and was usually relegated to playing domestics. - Virgo -- Details

But the 25-year-old Leigh has already been on nine different series, most of which were quickly canceled. Could she be the greatest TV jinx since the late Robert Urich? In unrelated hottie casting news, TV Guide reports that "Smallville" will add 22-year-old Canadian Laura Vandervoort as Supergirl this season.
