For those who aren't familiar with Norma Shearer's films, some of them are quite progressively feminist for the time period. Of course in any era, The Women, is a must see treat.

Love Norma S. The Women is one of my all time favorites. A real guilty pleasure.

And, I believe a very young Joan Crawford was the "hussy" in the movie.

@Mz iMac

Anything with Elizabeth Taylor is on my list of favorite movies. Maybe the only exception is "Raintree County." Just couldn't get into it at all.

But, anything else is a must watch!

I have Butterfield 8 and Cat on Hot Tin Roof on DVD. I can watch them over and over again.

The VIPs with her and Richard B. is not often shown, but fab.

Another Taylor goodie is Elephant Walk which is rarely shown.

Norma Shearer my favorite actress, with her unique beauty. She stood out! Then of course her acting as well. Irving Thalberg, Together force to celebrate.

I'm 67 and I remember hearing that name, but have never seen her movies. I'll have to look into that, I love seeing these old movies on DVD in the comfort of my own home.

My favorite Jean Harlow movie -- Dinner at Eight. She was a force of nature
