Classy Unusal Actress and Beauty (Tue Aug 30, 2005 2:53am ET)report post
by Debra
I have been treated to her films again recently on TCM, and have been reminded of what a wonderful actress she was, and how she really shined when she went a bit "out of the box" of that comfortable, "society gal" image, and plumbed the depths a little more. I absolutely adore the films of the 30's before the CODE got to themSmile. She had a very unusual beauty, not cookie-cutter, beautiful nontheless. Very sensual. From reading her biography, just personally, I like the fact that she was married to Thalberg for a long time, then made a long and successful marriage to a man 14 years younger than herself until her death. None of these five, six, seven marriages! How nice-hopefully, if it was a happy marriage.

I hope they continue to have "Norma" nights on the various classic movie channels.

Norma is the queen (Thu Jul 17, 2003 12:55am ET)report post

Norma was a vibrant star who radiated beauty and a sort of humble class that is apparent in all of her roles. She was not afraid to push the envelope or be herself. Norma is the queen whose star will forever shine in the heavens. WE LOVE YOU NORMA!
