DID YOU KNOW THAT CLAUDETTE WAS SLATED FOR "ALL ABOUT EVE"? SHE WAS REPLACED BY BETTE DAVIS AT THE LAST MOMENT BECAUSE SHE HAD INJURED HER BACK ON "THREE CAME HOME". OF COURSE NO ONE CAN SEE ANYONE BUT MS. DAVIS FOR THE MARGO CHANNING ROLE, BUT I SOMETIMES WONDER HOW MS. COLBERT WOULD HAVE COME OUT AS A BITCH.....NEVER SAW HER "NASTY" ON THE SCREEN....AND THE ROLE REVIVED BETTE DAVIS"S CAREER AFTER THAT WARNER MISTAKE, "BEYOND THE FOREST"....THANK YOU CLAUDETTE......

I love Claudette's voice in all her movies. Of course, she was beautiful in many ways.

It happened One Night is one of my all time favourite comedies. It hasn't dated one bit in over 70 years. I must have seen it about 20 times and love the scene where Claudette lifts her skirt to stop the cars so she and Gable can get a lift - it's timeless comedy.

We're happy to say that "The Egg and I" is available on DVD, actually in 2 different configurations. You can get it as part of the The Claudette Colbert Collection and it is also included in The Ma and Kettle Collection. Here's the link: http://bit.ly/cJW7Oz

I have always loved this Star! When are the Powers That Be going to get busy and get that gem "The Egg And I" out on dvd ? Gads, it is so frustrating.!!! I found "Getting Gertie's Garter" and "Up in Mabel's Room" finally after years of begging and searching web sites. So, never give up (or in) while looking for a favorite movie.
