[QUOTE="ginnyfan, post: 297546, member: 174"] Where does one start with Stanwyck? She's probably my favorite, though it's sometimes hard to chose between her, Joan and Bette. It all comes down to the fact that Stanny could do it all. She was at the peak of all major movie genres, during their heyday. From early 30s pre/code, to early 40s screwball comedy. From mid to late 40s film noir to 50s Sirk melodrama, all the while owning westerns as the only female who could match men there. The heck, she was the queen of Christmas movies as well! Going through her astonishingly huge filmography is a lesson in history of Hollywood and how genres changed. morphed and disappeared. The fact she was a great pro, beloved by fellow actors, crews and even studio heads makes her even more likeable. Never tied down to just one studio, she worked for all of them, on her own terms, which probably cost her an Oscar since she never had one studio focusing all of their resources on her. Nevermind, she's the still greatest!
