I’m watching a ton of Kay Francis films, and she is absolutely faboo. Gorgeous, the best wardrobe in Hollywood, a sense of humor, and all but forgotten today. But she is WONDERFUL. They called her “the wavashing Kay Fwancis” because of a minor speech impediment. She sings in most of her movies, and it is so much fun to hear her croon “I wiuw wuv you, foweva and foweva.” Actually, that’s a little exaggeration, but it is noticeable. Like Norma Shearer’s bum eye, it makes her even more attractive.

Norma Shearer had a bum eye? I thought she was just stoned all the time.
That too.
I need to see more Kay Francis! Thanks for the inspiration. Always into “discovering” new faboo old stars.
