..then at least post pictures of women we can appreciate and respect.
She's quite possibly the only woman that could match John Wayne's on-screen presence, and certainly carried as much clout around the studio, too. What she did for film, and studio actresses in general, is immeasurable. She didn't introduce glamour to the screen, but she certainly made it worth the trouble to develop Technicolor. Her characters were strong yet feminine, and extremely desireable, a combination that no other actress has been able to match. Its my opinion that she influenced the scripts that were written, not just for her films but for the films that followed for generations afterwards, giving the female roles more depth and style whereas in earlier films the characters were simple eye-candy without much substance.
I consider her to be the First Lady of Hollywood.
