Say hello to Jane Wyman, November's classic movie goddess. Jane is one of my top 25 classic movie actresses of all time. And like so many other stars I first remember seeing her in the twilight of her career. On Friday nights on CBS back in the early 80's as family patriarch Angela Channing on the long running soaper Falcon Crest. I didn't realize until much later that Jane began her career back in the 30's. And I have been watching her older movies ever since then. She had a great flair for comedy as evident in The Doughgirls (1944), Princess O'Rourke (1943), You're In The Army Now (1941), Larceny, Inc (1942) among others. Of course most people know her from the highly regarded classics like The Lost Weekend (1945), The Yearling (1946) and her Oscar winning turn in Johnny Belinda (1948). So this month it will all be about Jane. Reviews, facts, pics, and all related stuff to this wonderful actress!. Hope everyone can stop by every now and then this month to spend a little time with me and Jane.
So glad you chose Jane Wyman - people don't write about her much these days. Also, that is a fabulous skirt she's wearing in the photo.
