3. Bright Lights Film Journal | Norma Shearer Norma Shearer s poise, intelligence, her seemingly easy laughter, and sense of high style masked a deep insecurity and a tendency toward depression. http://www.brightlightsfilm.com/16/norma.html

BY GARY MORRIS MGM can be considered the prime mover in this realm; its motto "More stars than there are in heaven" was not mere hyperbole, but hinted at the real ability of movie stars to satisfy longings once confined to religion. The Divorcee , for example, the emphasis is on modern Strangers May Kiss, Let Us Be Gay , and A Free Soul (with Clark Gable) also showed the modern woman torn between the desire for self-fulfillment and the inevitable dragging forces of convention. (Shearer's ultra-chic contemporary style was usually signified by her seductive Deco wardrobe, courtesy of MGM's top designer, Adrian.) Toward the end of her career, George Cukor The Women . Here, Norma's familiar ruthless buoyancy and unyielding "goodness," contrasted with Joan Crawford Tyrone Power, Jr. and Norma Shearer in Marie Antoinette Romeo and Juliet to the lead in Marie Antoinette Private Lives and Eugene O'Neill's too-well-named Strange Interlude New York and into the dream world of the movies. A streak of insanity (manic depression) ran through the family that also threatened, and sometimes seemed to claim, Norma. Moviegoers of the 1930s responded strongly to Shearer's ceaselessly upbeat, smilin'-through attitude, but the mask that imparted this feeling showed increasing cracks as time went on. Shearer passed from venerated star to bewildered, contentious widow when her powerful husband died in 1936. Her movie career ended with Her Cardboard Lover in 1942, and she became a bitter, depressive recluse, now lost in her dream.

Classifieds Message Board Past Issues Subscribe ... Home Page Norma Shearer - The First Lady of MGM by Eve Golden Joan had a point: Norma Shearer's position as the wife of MGM's vice president and production supervisor, Irving Thalberg, certainly got her first dibs on some of the best scripts. But (and even Joan might have admitted this), Norma had to carry those films on her own merits. Sometimes being the protegee of a well-placed benefactor can be a two-edged sword. Marion Davies-one of the most brilliant comediennes of her day-was thought of as simply the lucky mistress of William Randolph Hearst. The talented offspring of Douglas Fairbanks, Lon Chaney, and others had to fight long and hard for recognition in their own right. And Norma Shearer has often been brushed off as just "Mrs. Irving Thalberg," the First Lady of MGM. But the availability of Norma's films on TV and videotape reveals that she was an amazingly talented actress, much less mannered than posterity will have it. She played a wide array of roles-classic and modern, comic and tragic-with impressive force and intelligence.

19. Norma Shearer Was Born Edith Norma Shearer On August 11th, 1902 In By the winter of 1920 Mrs. shearer, norma and Athole arrived in New York City with only a few meager belongings and a small stack of reference letters http://www.geocities.com/Hollywood/Boulevard/5255/bio.html

A BIOGRAPHY OF NORMA SHEARER Norma Shearer, a Biography by D'Arcy D.(1997) Norma Shearer was born Edith Norma Shearer on August 11th, 1902 in Westmount, a suburb of Montreal, Quebec Canada. Norma was the youngest daughter of Andrew Shearer a Scotsman and construction company executive, and Edith Fisher Shearer an English woman and descendent of a lineage of clergymen. She had an older sister Athole and one brother Douglas. Norma's childhood was characterized by periods of illness and "bad colds" contrasted with periods of excessive energy. When feeling well Norma was constantly playing outdoors. Sports and socializing with boys were favorite pass-times. In her early teens she was considered a 'tom-boy' and on more than one occassion merited this title within her masculine circle. Years later Norma described her childhood as "a pleasant dream" and from all indications it clearly was. During these early years the Shearer family was quite comfortable socially and financialy. Norma began singularizing herself in early adolescence, winning a beauty contest at age 15. With the encouragement of her mother, Norma joined a theatrical group, reciting plays by Robert W. Service, a personal favorite. Also like other young girls her age she enjoyed the movies, especially Pearl White's serial exploits. She even attempted to follow Miss White's automobile after a personal appearance in Montreal. By all accounts Norma was a high-spirited and pretty young girl who balanced her excessive tenacity with sincerity and modesty.

20. NORMA SHEARER FILM REVIEWS A critique of her movie, 'Her Cardboard Lover.' Information and photographs. http://www.geocities.com/Hollywood/Boulevard/5255/aug99film.html

AUGUST'S FEATURE Her Cardboard Lover August's Feature: Her Cardboard Lover Critic's Verdict: (Opinion#1) "If this is Miss Shearer's movie swan song, as has been intimated, she leaves us with a very fine performance to remember her by. True, at times Miss Shearer spreads on the histronics a bit too thick, but the role is difficult and why shouldn't a love-frustrated woman be a bit hysterical at times? Anyway, we like her and think you will too ." Staff writer in " PHOTOPLAY" August, 1942. (Opinion#2) "This undertaking in the zone of sophisticated comedy ranges from boudoir frivolity, such as used to be called continental to knockabout brawling, such as has always been called slapstick. It excels in neither department and serves chiefly as a means of presenting Norma Shearer, Robert Tayor and George Sanders to their fans." Staff writer in "MOTION PICTURE HERALD", May 30, 1942. My two cents! By D'Arcy D. August, 1999. "'Her Cardboard Lover' was Norma's swan song, being her last star appearance, ending close to two decades at MGM. This film was not well received, as evidence from the above reviews. Fans were beginning to find greater interest in war films over and against the traditional glaomourized showcase-film perfected at MGM by this time. In Norma's personal life, she was more interested in spending time with her new husband Martin Arrouge and children rather than fussing on the set. Thus she made her film vehicle choices based on the practical considerations of speed and familiarity. However, if one takes a closer look at the role of Consuelo, its not as easy as it might seem, being subtle and demanding in its hysteria. Some modern revierwers attempt to read a supposed seminal mania into her performance but forget that she was a true professional and displays the best of years of practise and work. If her hystronics raise above a startling crescendo it is because she knew the part, not because she lived it.
