Okay, for the fun of it, I decided to test a theory. I picked another popular movie at random from about the same time period as The Conqueror, I picked the The Caine Mutiny. Of the 42 actors listed in the credits at IMDb for The Caine Mutiny, it only list the cause of death (or that have died) for 15 of them. Of those 15, 8 died of cancer, 1 of a brain tumor, and 1 of leukemia. That is 53% outright of cancer, and 66.7% of cancer related diseases.
I suppose Yosemite gave those people cancer?

Should this page have a disambiguation page, since there are two notable Susan Haywards - one of them, who isn't wikified (and whom I just came here looking for) writes widely distributed film theory articles and books, and is currently a professor of French at the University of Exeter in the UK. More than that I haven't been able to find out! -- Harmonica 01:06, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
Was Susan born in 1917 or 1918? Some sites have different years. Hotwine8 03:11, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
I highly doubt Hayward was given "massive doses of dopamine" Dyslexix 00:21, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
Where is the source for this? She was friends with George Cukor and was a pal of many Hollywood designers. This article alludes to Ms. Hayward being homophobic and everything I have read on her says differently. Hilljayne ( talk) 16:39, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
An editor removed two paragraphs from the lead because "this is entirely a duplication of information that's already in the bio". The lead contents are not an exact duplication, and per WP:LEAD, the contents of a lead should reflect the content in the article as well as serve as a stand-alone article. If you think it duplicates the content too much, then revise the wording. However, this effectively deleted the mention of four other Academy Awards nominations from the lead entirely, and trimmed it to one small paragraph. It has not helped the lead, it has cut it down to 3 sentences and removed key mention of several points. Wildhartlivie ( talk) 22:43, 5 December 2009 (UTC)
