It's funny how the mass audience only remembers a few actors from says gone by. I am sure most people know the name Barbara Stanwyck, but as time marches on, I'm not sure how many folks know her by site or have seen her films. I haven't seen that many, and I tend to give a movie a chance if I know she's in the credits.
She's an amazingly versatile actress from an era when that wasn't always appreciated so much as playing yourself in different costumes and time periods (see: Judy Garland). But here's just a few highlights.

| Clash by Night |

| The great Double Indemnity |

| Christmas in Connecticut |
 |
| Baby Face |
I think TCM has been showing Stanwyck movies all day. Tune in if you have a chance.
