Yes it was definitely Doris Day that sang Que sera sera (not sure of the spelling LOL)

She is probably most well known for the song, "Whatever Will Be, Will Be (Que Sera, Sera)", which she introduced in the 1956 film, "The Man Who Knew Too Much" - source Wikipedia.

Thanks, Linda. Great pic.
Some actresses never seemed to change their hair styles at all in their careers.
Such as June Allyson!
Maybe Angela Lansbury!
Veronica Lake?
Perhaps I haven't seen the right films.

Lynne, I think it was a bit of a `trade mark`. Rita Hayworth, Audry and Katherine Hepburn and, of course, Marilyn Monroe immediately spring to mind. Did ANYONE change their hairstyle in that period?

I think you are absolutely right ,Jim.
It was an era of Hollywood idols who were instantly recognisable whatever the parts they played. Errol Flynn,Stewart Granger,Clark Gable etc.
Most of them were really type cast-men and women and chosen specially for their image to fit roles not asked to change to fit them.
It will require a bit of thought to come up with an actor/actress who was able to show how able they could be to fit in very different parts.
I don't see many films these days but it seems to me that there are ones who can do this successfully.
Maybe Helen Mirren ?

Sean Bean as Sharpe, maybe?

I like Helen Mirren but I was not impressed with her when she did an interview on US TV. She really has a mouth that should be washed out with soap.

One actress who ticks all the boxes is Meryl Streep. Many of her portrayals have been absolutely brilliant.
