Jean Arthur was his favorite actress to work with and despite her insecurities or perhaps because of them- she was definitely one of a kind.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17935070386471677221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8999837387888756513.post-17582728500131990512011-03-27T10:25:50.972-07:002011-03-27T10:25:50.972-07:00I love movies depicting 30s "office girl"...I love movies depicting 30s "office girl" fashions.

As Lewis Carroll's White Queen would say, there's a moral here, if we can only find it...<br />Frank Capra mentioned in his autobiography how insecure an actress Arthur was (she would throw up before filming each scene, etc). It never showed in any of her performances, though. Such a great talent!Grand Old Movieshttp://grandoldmovies.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
