Sally Forrest Movies
American actress
Sally Forrest went from high-school dance instructor to movie dancer in 1946 with her first film,
Till the Clouds Roll By (1946).
Forrest was briefly a protégé of actress/director Ida Lupino, who cast Forrest in
Not Wanted (1949) and
Hard Fast and Beautiful (1950); in the latter film
Forrest delivered her best screen performance as a brilliant but emotionally cold-blooded tennis pro. Most of the actress' later performances were bland leading-lady types, though she was quite alluring as an inappropriately blonde Persian harem girl in
Son of Sinbad (1955). Sally Forrest's last movie appearance was in
Ride the High Iron (1957), which began life as a TV pilot film but was released theatrically when the pilot failed to sell. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
