Description
Legend has it that when Jean Arthur walked out of Columbia Studios for the very last time, she shouted "I'm free! I'm free!" If it didn't happen that way, well, Jean had her own habit of stretching the truth so The Old Movie Lady thinks it's okay. She was the unusual character with the quirky voice who became a star in her mid-thirties (shhh!) and appeared in a string of classics like Mr Deeds Goes to Town, The Devil and Miss Jones, Mr Smith Goes to Washington, The More the Merrier. and You Can't Take It With You. But how did she get there, and what lead to Jean's ecstatic departure from Harry Cohn's studio? Find out that and more, in this special episode of OML, this is Close Up: Jean Arthur. This episode contains (mild) language that may be inappropriate for some listeners. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
