Merle Oberon (born Estelle Merle O'Brien Thompson, 19 February 1911 – 23 November 1979) was an Anglo-Indian actress. She began her film career in British films as Anne Boleyn in The Private Life of Henry VIII (1933). After her success in The Scarlet Pimpernel (1934), she travelled to the United States to make films for Samuel Goldwyn. She was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actress for her performance in The Dark Angel (1935). A traffic collision in 1937 caused facial injuries that could have ended her career, but she soon followed this with her most renowned performance in Wuthering Heights (1939).
Throughout her adult life, in order to conceal her Indian heritage she maintained the fiction that she was born in Tasmania, Australia; she concocted a story that all her school records had been destroyed in a fire, which meant it could be neither proven nor disproven. She maintained these fictions throughout her professional life. The year before she died she finally admitted this story was not true, and records located since her death have confirmed her true origin.

After recovering from a serious cosmetic poisoning incident that ravaged her gorgeous face during the production of the Warner Bros. romantic melodrama 'TIL WE MEET AGAIN (1940), Merle Oberon grew insecure of her looks and so she was forever checking herself in the hundreds of mirrors on the ornate fantasy ballroom set.

L.B. Abbott and A.D. Flowers receive a Special Achievement Award for Visual Effects for "The Poseidon Adventure" at the 45th Academy Awards in 1973. Presented by Merle Oberon and hosted by Charlton Heston.
Estelle Merle O'Brien Thompson was born in Bombay, India and was raised in poverty. She did get a good education, nonetheless, and sought out theatre as her favorite activity. She became enamored by film and ambition to make a better life. She but left to London at age 17 to seek a career in movies. Shortly into her career, at the behest of Alexander Korda, her future husband, she changed her name to Merle Oberon. Merle's most beautiful role was early in her career in The Scarlet Pimpernel (1934) as Lady Blakeney and her most famous role was opposite Lawrence Olivier in Wuthering Heights, one of the greatest romance movies. A couple years before making that film, she was in a terrible automobile accident which disfigured her face. But a special lighting was created (the "Obie") which ke...

Can we take the streets? Cause there's a horrible crash.
Standing on the highway, a girl and her dad.
You say yea, it's far too much for me,
Far too fast of scenery but your voice,
And your lips are moving words that I cannot breach the noise.
Just remember always move fast.
We know you, we own you.
Go home and leave me at the door or we can stay outside of your house
And just wait for the morning.
I heard you can't stay too long the morning's got you worried.
Because the sun holds a sea of troubles and an early drive away.
So I guess I'll just stay for a while I guess you knew just from how I smiled.
Because there's no hurry more like fucking nursery I'm a beautiful child.
Just remember always move fast.
We know you, we own you.
Go home and leave me at the door or we can stay outside of your house
And just wait for the morning.
I've seen your sadness grow.
And it swallows these days until it hurts to breathe.
She whispers, thanks for your time tonight,
But you are not awake yet you are not awake I swear.
She screams, it's all been in your dream with nothing tangible.
The girl, this house, the highway, your mind made it real.
