  • Jean Harlow ~ 20 Films

    Jean Harlow ~ 20 Films

    Jean Harlow ~ 20 Films Harlean Harlow Carpenter - later Jean Harlow - was born in Kansas City, Missouri on 3 March 1911. After being signed by director Howard Hughes, Harlow's first major appearance was in Hell's Angels (1930), followed by a series of critically unsuccessful films, before signing with Metro-Goldwyn- Mayer in 1932. Harlow became a leading lady for MGM, starring in a string of hit films including Red Dust (1932), Dinner At Eight (1933), Reckless (1935) and Suzy (1936). Among her frequent co-stars were William Powell, Spencer Tracy and, in six films, Clark Gable. Harlow's popularity rivalled and soon surpassed that of her MGM colleagues Joan Crawford and Norma Shearer. By the late 1930s she had become one of the biggest movie stars in the world, often nicknamed "The Blonde Bombshell" and "The Platinum Blonde" and popular for her "Laughing Vamp" movie persona. She died of uraemic poisoning on 7 June 1937, at the age of 26, during the filming of Saratoga. The film was completed using doubles and released a little over a month after Harlow's death. In her brief life she married and lost three husbands (two divorces, one suicide) and chalked up 22 feature film credits (plus another 21 short / bit-part non-credits, including Chaplin's City Lights). The American Film Institute (damning with faint praise?) ranked her the 22nd greatest female star in Hollywood history. LIBERTY, BACON GRABBERS and NEW YORK NIGHTS (all 1929) (1) Liberty (2) Bacon Grabbers (3) New York Nights (Harlow left-screen) A lucky few aspiring actresses seem to take the giant step from obscurity to the big time in a single bound - Lauren Bacall may be the best example of that - but for many more the road to recognition and riches is long and grinding.

    William Powell ~ 23 Films

    William Powell ~ 23 Films William Horatio Powell was born 29 July 1892 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. In 1907, he moved with his family to Kansas City, Missouri, where he graduated from Central High School in 1910. The Powells lived just a few blocks away from the Carpenters, whose daughter Harlean also found success in Hollywood as Blonde Bombshell Jean Harlow, although she and Powell did not meet until both were established actors. After school, Powell attended New York City's American Academy Of Dramatic Arts. Work in vaudeville, stock companies and on Broadway followed until, in 1922, aged 30, playing an evil henchman of Professor Moriarty in a production of Sherlock Holmes, his Hollywood career began. More small parts followed and he did sufficiently well that, in 1924, he was signed by Paramount Pictures, where he stayed for the next seven years. Though stardom was elusive, he did eventually attract attention as arrogant film director Lev Andreyev in The Last Command (1928) before finally landing his breakthrough role, that of detective Philo Vance in The Canary Murder Case (1929). Unlike many silent actors, the advent of sound boosted Powell's career. His fine, urbane voice, stage training and comic timing greatly aided his successful transition to the talkies. However, not happy with the type of roles he was getting at Paramount, in 1931 he switched to Warner Bros. His last film for them, The Kennel Murder Case (1933), was also his fourth and last Philo Vance outing. In 1934 he moved again, to MGM, where he was paired with Myrna Loy in Manhattan Melodrama (1934).

    The Life and Death of Jean Harlow, Writes of One Particularly Memorable

    Episode #7 Show Notes: The Girl from Missouri In the 1930s Jean Harlow was possibly the biggest star the world had ever known. The original “blond bombshell,” her fresh, sultry look was one that drove men wild and women to peroxide. By her own admission, her acting ability was somewhat lacking. “I’m the worst actress that was ever in pictures,” she had said, and more than once. To her legions of fans, it didn’t matter. She had an indefinable “it” quality that drew people to her like a magnet. Her assessment of her own acting ability was too extreme—she wasn’t the worst actress who ever lived. She wasn’t the best, either. She was an astute observer, though, and as she made a study of her co-stars, her performances did improve over time. In some of her later films, like Wife vs. Secretary and Libeled Lady (two of my favorites) she was quite good—and anything she lacked in acting ability she made up for in sex appeal. She was pretty, yes, but more than that, she was overtly and brazenly sexual. It was well known, for example, that she never wore underwear, which was, at times, shockingly obvious when she would walk on the set wearing diaphanous gowns. David Stenn, in his book Bombshell: The Life and Death of Jean Harlow, writes of one particularly memorable incident that occurred on the set of the film Red Headed Woman: “Most astounding to MGM crews was Harlow’s attitude toward her body. Told by Jack Conway [the director] to remove her jacket in a scene, she obeyed—and wore nothing underneath…Visitors on the set scarcely believed their eyes…but the resulting commotion puzzled Harlow.
