Elliott Gould's Philip Marlowe in Altman's The Long Goodbye.
Was it Great expectations or something else where Martitia Hunt was wearing a faded wedding gown and living in a cobweb strewn room where she was 'living in the past' because her husband to be didn't show up for the wedding?

Yep it's Miss Havisham in Great Expectations.

She does much the same thing in Treasure Hunt for the same reason.

Was that in colour Cap'n?
I have this vision of Martitia with a powder white face which wouldn't be apparent in GE so i'm wondering if i have seen Treasure Hunt.

Nope, b/w. She spends most of the time in a sedan tour imaging she's on her wedding trip. Don't think her make-up is out of the ordinary in that one. It's years since I've seen it but does she have white make-up in The Unsinkable Molly Brown?

Funny you should say that Cap'n, i've just recieved 'Molly Brown' only last week from the HMV on-line sale, i've not seen it before but i like Debbie Reynolds, then there's the Titanic connection hopefully.
Sometimes the imagination plays tricks on a person, i tend to get Martitia mixed up with Margaret Leighton, has she ever been made up in the ghostly way described?

Mark, I thought you might be thinking of her in the colour film The Brides of Dracula (1960), after she has been "vampirised" by her son!

Flippin 'eck!.........i'm more confused than ever now, another not seen, though one day hopefully........
At the Paris Disneyland inside the 'Psycho' house there's also a set that moves with the jilted Bride and fellow guests all ghostly and covered in fake cobweb........
The past is a foreign country. They do things differently there.
