A note from Jorge Fernández Díaz in "cultural DNA" recalled a game between Manuel Puig and Guillermo Cabrera Infante, when the first letter sent to you on the parallels between famous Hollywood actresses and Latin American writers.
Some parallels are to excel. We chose these:
Norma Shearer (Borges): So fine!
Vivien Leigh (Sabato): Temperamental and sick, sick.
Liz Taylor (García Márquez): Bella but with short legs.
Hedy Lamarr (Cortázar): Beautiful but cold and remote.
All comparisons: scrap book
