Marlene Dietrich rejuvenated? No, the net stockings and tux belong to Swiss-born Actress Marthe Keller, 29, whose comedy role in Le Guêpier (The Hornet's Nest) casts her as an entertainer who has Dietrich's looks but none of her talent. With almost a dozen European films to her credit, Keller has now begun her first American movie, Marathon Man, starring Dustin Hoffman and Laurence Olivier. How do her new co-stars compare with the likes of Italy's Marcello Mastroianni and France's Yves Montand"? "It's a question of geography, of one's country," answers Keller. "Marcello is always thinking of eating. He's sensual. Montand is professional in the French way and very charming. Dustin is profound, passionate and funny."

"We eloped and there was no honeymoon. She's always been sad that there wasn't a white wedding," observed Roger Smith, former sleuth on TV's 77 Sunset Strip and the husband-manager of Actress Ann-Margret for the past eight years. So, in an upcoming television special titled Ann-Margret Smith, the pair will say their vows once more, this time with the groom in top hat and gray cutaway and the bride in white. That done, they will cycle into the sunset, tin cans trailing behind their Harley-Davidson. "Weddings are more fun the second time around, especially with the same man," claimed the again bride-to-be. Said Smith: "Maybe that's something Liz Taylor would understand."
