Happy Birthday to Rosalind Russell, born June 4, 1907. Roz starred alongside Clark Gable in Forsaking All Others, China Seas and They Met in Bombay. In 1941, she did an entire interview on what she thinks of a certain Mr. Gable. “He gets a great hoot out of everything he plays. The idea that he walks casually through his scenes is a canard. He’s an easy-going man, but that’s truer of his private life than of his work. He’s always at ease in front of a camera, but he’s a terrifically hard worker. Very conscientious. His wardrobe man, for instance, is probably the most highly-trained in Hollywood—Clark is that particular about having detail of every costume accurate. Or maybe ‘believable’ is the word. “Normal people have a routine life, and they get excited about vacations. But Clark pours his enthusiasm and imagination into his work. That’s what excites him. And I think it’s one of the important reasons why he has lasted—why any picture with Gable in it is bound to have its moments. ~Rosalind Russell dearmrgable/?page_id=3709
