Kelly, thanks for the link. I only just skimmed the article, but already I've noticed a number of glaring factual mistakes. The Daily Mail is not to be relied on for solid journalism. It's like the National Enquirer in the U.S., basically a scandal sheet.

Just reading the heading was enough for me. "First Celebrity Car Crash"!!!  I mean she wasn't just a celebrity - she was a star and anyone who is even remotely interested in Jean Harlow knows that she was a hugely talented comedienne. I have also read that no-one that knew her had a bad word to say against her - she was just so beloved. :jump: :jump: |

Jean Harlow is a star that has really come into her own in the last few years. People now realise
how talented she is. I bought a book a few weeks ago at a garage sale. It was not that old.
It was called "The Great Movie Stars: The Golden Years" - I can't remember the author, but in it
he compares Jean Harlow quite unfavourably to Marilyn Monroe. It made me think, that with the
internet and more access to her films people now realise how talented Jean Harlow was. Although
I didn't see many of her films, Jean Harlow (along with Deanna Durbin
and Rita Hayworth) was my mother's favourite actress.

Well this just rumor I hearing on TCM website that they plan MAJOR BOX set in 2011 on base of Jean Harlow 100th birthday I think if she would have survived I think she would have be screw ball comedian like Cary Grant female version of that I think she has great talent too bad MGM didn't see that way
