Marsha Hunt, one of the last surviving actors from Hollywood’s so-called Golden Age of the 1930s and 1940s who worked with performers ranging from Laurence Olivier to Andy Griffith in a career disrupted for a time by the McCarthy-era blacklist, has died. She was 104.

Prince Harry’s old flame Cressida Bonas showed how to do pregnancy in style while out shopping in West London last week. Wearing a relaxed pair of denim dungarees and a white T-shirt, Cressida, 33, accessorised her outfit with a straw tote bag and her dachshund, Budgie Bear, who trotted alongside her.

Alan K. Rode The death of actress-activist Marsha Hunt this week is a historical watershed and a personal loss. Marsha was one of the last living actors who began her movie career during the Great Depression in 1935. She became part of a now vanished Hollywood, initially at Paramount then at MGM, that bound contracted talent to studios with artists having little to no say over their choice of roles and careers. Nevertheless, she thrived in the studio system by becoming somewhat less than a genuine movie star and more of a consummate professional actress.   Marsha’s career was derailed by the Blacklist, a perfidious period of American history that has been endlessly chronicled and misunderstood. Never a Communist or radical, she was a forthright liberal who refused to accept her voice being marginalized by the endemic sexism and politics of the period. Marsha was the final survivor of the Committee of the First Amendment, an action group of film actors, directors and writers founded by screenwriter Philip Dunne, actress Myrna Loy, and directors John Huston and William Wyler. Members of the group flew to Washington D.C. on October 27, 1947 to protest the HUAC hearings investigating so-called subversive Communist influence in the motion picture industry. From a public relations perspective, the group’s involvement backfired and many people in the group subsequently had to seek political cover. After the pamphlet “Red Channels” was published in June 1950, naming Marsha and 150 other artists, journalists and writers by falsely portraying them as subversives who were manipulating the entertainment system, she had a great deal of trouble finding work in Hollywood.

confirmed the news to The Hollywood Reporter. A former model, Hunt was a standout in such films as John Wayne’s 1937 Western “Born to the West,” 1939’s “The Glamour Girls,” opposite Lana Turner; 1940’s “Pride and Prejudice” and 1948’s beloved noir “Raw Deal.” In 1945, she joined the board of the Screen Actors Guild.But her career unraveled after she and her second husband, screenwriter Robert Presnell Jr., joined a Hollywood group that questioned McCarthy’s efforts to root out Communists in American society, including in Hollywood.

The rules of survival in Hollywood have always fascinated me. “Consistency is the key – always present yourself to studios as a total bitch,” Bette Davis once confided. “Never delude yourself into thinking that a star can become a loyal personal friend,” advised Billy Wilder. “Since studios always lie, a producer’s mandate is to come up with bigger lies,” said David O. Selznick.

Jennifer Lawrence has voiced her frustration with the gender pay gap in Hollywood, stating she’ll always be paid less “because of my vagina”.Speaking to Vogue for their October cover story, the Oscar-winning star acknowledged that actors of her level of fame are “often” overpaid but that she still finds the difference “bothersome”.“It doesn’t matter how much I do. I’m still not going to get paid as much as that guy, because of my vagina?” she said.Her comments come following reports that she earned $5million (£4.4million) less than Leonardo DiCaprio for the Netflix movie Don’t Look Up. The pair starred together in the 2021 Adam McKay comedy about two scientists who warn the world of an approaching comet with the potential to wipe out all human life.But despite being the first name on the call sheet for production, Lawrence reportedly earned $25m (£21.6m) for the film, compared to DiCaprio’s $30m (£26m).Elsewhere in her interview with Vogue, Lawrence expressed her anger at the US Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v.

John Wayne classics such as The Searchers and Stagecoach saw his health deteriorating terribly in the early 1970s. After breaking a hip, Ford had to get used to a wheelchair and was moved from his Bel Air home to Palm Desert to be treated for cancer.
