  • Ann Harding ~ 22 Films
    Ann Harding ~ 22 Films Born in Texas in 1902 and forsaking commerce for the theatre in 1921, by 1929 Ann Harding was an established Broadway lead. In that year she signed with Pathé (soon part of RKO) and through the mid-'30s starred in a series of soap operas, most typically as suffering heroines forced to make noble sacrifices for the men they love. With her ash-blonde hair usually swept back into a bun, classical makeup-free good looks and deep, beautifully modulated voice, the patrician Harding brought a gentle, serene strength to such worthy star vehicles as When Ladies Meet (1933) and The Life Of Vergie Winters (1934) but fared less well in more faltering efforts such as Devotion (1931) and Enchanted April (1935). Ideal for the philosophical sophistication of playwright Phillip Barry, Harding shone in fine adaptations of two of his most successful comedy- drama talkfests: Holiday (1930), for which she received a Best Actress Oscar nomination and The Animal Kingdom (1932). She made two of her strongest films late in her reign as a star: the haunting almost surreal love story Peter Ibbetson (1935, opposite Gary Cooper) and the taut suspense melodrama Love From A Stranger (1937, with Basil Rathbone). She continued to appear on film, stage and television until 1965 and died in 1981, aged 79. With her favourite leading man, Leslie Howard Moira Finnie talks to Ann Harding biographer Scott O'Brien "Looking at Harding," wrote film historian Mick LaSalle in his book Complicated Women "is like looking into clear, deep water. Nothing stands in the way.
