Yes, it was the timing that prompted the response. I saw the list right after arriving home, with Wolf still going around my head, and noticed you had just posted it. Seemed perfect to me.

I hear you, Paul! Mackaill was amazing. How First National could have dropped her after this.... But then she was old, almost thirty, and her popularity had waned somewhat during the late twenties. The only other picture I have seen her in is No Man of Her Own where she is second fiddle to Gable and Lombard, but looked fine to me. I'll try to see some more of her work when I add her to the Lost Women. /// Harlow is another one with too short a career and still poorly represented on dvd. I watched Three Wise Girls the other day. It's kind of a styleless film, but a nice portrait of three young women in the city. Visually, she outshines the others, but the acting honors go to Mae Clarke (no grapefruit this time) and Marie Prevost, another silent star being dumped at the time. Harlow didn't yet display the confidence and sense of humor that Paul Bern brought out in her when she signed with MGM. She is at her peak in Red Dust and Bombshell, and I am also very fond of Wive Vs. Secretary in which she is a young professional woman and in no way a bimbo, an indication of the sort of part she might have been playing had she lived longer. /// You're welcome, Paul, and I would be glad to get some recommendations from you, too. Bob
