The Good Wives
"It was a role no one could live up to, really." - Myrna Loy on being typecast as "The Perfect Wife"
"There always was a broom or a vacuum cleaner in my fist, or I was at the sink, scrubbing away for dear life." - Claudette Colbert on her screen image
"Some perfect wife I am. I've been married four times, divorced four times, have no children, and can't boil an egg." - Myrna Loy on real life vs. reel life
"I married a wonderful doctor, and I was very happy -- period." - Claudette Colbert on being a real life doctor's wife Fine Feathered Friends
"To me, Joan Crawford’s screen portrayals are all one: a series of transparencies through which she projects her daydream –- herself –- a wonderful abused kid.
