Lake had a complex personality and acquired a reputation for being difficult to work with. Eddie Bracken, her co-star in "Star Spangled Rhythm", in which Lake appeared in a musical number, was quoted as saying, "She was known as 'The Bitch' and she deserved the title." However, Lake and McCrea did make another film together, "Ramrod" (1947). During filming of "The Blue Dahlia" (1946), screenwriter Raymond Chandler referred to her as "Moronica Lake".
