Writeup: Early in her career, Jean was pigeon holed
in roles that didn't really fit her. Roles in a number of
lackluster productions like The Masked Menace (1927), The
Canary Murder Case (1929), The Greene Murder Case (1929),
The Mysterious Dr. Fu Manchu (1929), Young Eagles (1930),
The Silver Horde (1930), The Lawyer's Secret (1931), Get That
Venus (1933), The Forgotten Man (1934) and The Defense Rests
(1934) among countless others had critics and audiences alike
thinking she was an actress of little substance. However,
her role in The Whole Town's Talking (1935) showed a comic
side that no one suspected Jean ever possessed before the
movie. Frank Capra was captivated by Jean and cast her in
a number of his films, including Mr. Deeds Goes to Town (1936),
You Can't Take It With You (1938), and Mr. Smith Goes to Washington
(1939), making her a star. In the early 1940s she starred
in two movies directed by George Stevens, both wonderful films:
The Talk of the Town (1942) and The More the Merrier (1943),
the latter of which earned her an Oscar nomination. In 1944
she quit the movies over a dispute with Columbia Pictures
head Harry Cohn (not the first actress to have a dispute with
Cohn). After that she made only two more movies: A Foreign
Affair (1948) and Shane (1953). Much later she would appear
in The Jean Arthur Show (1966), a short lived court room sitcom.
