Westworld original movie: Look at Playboy star Anne Randall now
Westworld is about to return to HBO with all its violent delights.
The original 1973 film starring Yul Brynner and James Brolin also had plenty of delights and was even more groundbreaking in its day.

The same year she married famous bandleader and TV host Dick Stewart, who was 18 years her senior.
Stewart was the first host of the televised beauty talent show The Dream Girl.
Over 50 years later, their marriage endures.
After her last few appearances in TV detective shows like the Rockford Files in 1976 and Robert Wagner’s Switch in 1977, Randall retired from the public eye.
Stewart similarly made his last major appearance on US TV in 19
