[QUOTE="Crimson, post: 231519, member: 5079"] I'll add [B]Claire Trevor[/B] to this list; she had a 50-year career, shifting between leading and supporting roles, and won an Academy Award among a few nominations. Truth is, I've only ever seen two of her films, yet they both rank among my favorite performances: KEY LARGO (easily one of my favorite movies) and THE VELVET TOUCH (an obscure but very good [I]noir[/I] drama); both from 1948. Based on these two performances, she seemed rare among actors in her ability to perform in a way I might describe as "full throttled" yet without crossing over into being hammy or overwrought. I always mean to explore more of her films, but have never gotten around to it. [ATTACH=full]21621[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]21622[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]21623[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
