My Take
Virginia Grey is exactly the kind of performer I treasure: the dependable presence who held films together beside the leads. Appearing in over a hundred films from the 1930s into the 1980s means she witnessed Hollywood from its golden age through its decline, adapting the whole way. She could write too, which speaks to a deeper craft than her fame suggests. People remember her romance with Clark Gable, but I am far more struck by a half-century of professional endurance.
