Myrna Loy


Career spanned just short of 60 years, appearing on TV movies and episodes into the early 80s.

Famously the onscreen wife for William Powell (they appeared in 14 films together and as a couple so often, it is difficult to watch, say, The Best Years of Our Lives and not think how Powell would have done in Frederic March's role, or, conversely Life With Father and not considered how Loy would have fared in Irene Dunn's role), their last pairing was in Song of the Thin Man (which had child actor Dean Stockwell in the role of Nick, Jr.)

She was also the last onscreen wife of Hank Fonda (ABC's made-for-tv Summer Solstice, 1981)

Obviously, she's way up for the category for me, as are Sophia Loren and Grace Kelly, but Marilyn is #1 and it isn't particularly close.


Great post, but Irene Dunn was absolutely magnificent in Life with Father. I can’t imagine anyone else in that role!

I wasn't denigrating. I think March's performance in The Best Years of Our Lives was, maybe, the best of his career and the best in a film full of homeruns. Just impossible to see Loy or Powell onscreen, with a spouse, and not think of the other.

Similar to Duke and Maureen O'Hara.

if youve never seen it, seek out Hotel de Love, an Australian rom-com from the late ‘90s

great film, funny and sweet, and a young (24) Saffron Burrows is absolutely gorgeous
