Carole Lombard

"Mobilizing a heart-shaped face that might have been carved from alabaster were it not quite so elastic, oversized eyes that flicked from wide-open innocence to heavy-lidded allure, and a voice that, though velvety on command, more often gushed forth in a high, tinkling rush, Carole Lombard seemed to play with the properties of celluloid as if they were finger paints." In the Voice, Hazel-Dawn Dumpert previews the Film Forum series running from Friday through December 2.

"An earthly deity of the silver screen, she was more than just blonde and beautiful - she also possessed a quick wit and daffy lunacy that remains unsurpassed over 70 years later," writes Cullen Gallagher in the L Magazine.
