In the late 1800’s, the body of an unidentified woman was pulled from the Seine River, in France. The drowned woman’s face had a hint of a smile – very similar to the famous painting of the Mona Lisa. In fact, the pathologist was so incredibly smitten by the woman’s face, he made a plaster cast of it. This death mask became extremely popular in France and was sold across the country. A year later, a toy manufacturer was asked to create a doll to be used as a CPR mannequin. Needing a face for the body, the toy manufacturer remembered the death mask he’d seen at his grandparents’ home. And that is the story behind “Rescue Annie” – the face that has been ‘kissed’ millions upon millions of times! PS: CPR, trainees are taught to ask “Annie, are you OK?” while practicing resuscitation techniques.
The chorus of Michael Jackson’s song, “’Smooth Criminal’ was, in fact, inspired by Rescue Annie! What does this have to do with Match and Fable’s latest role?
