- Mary Astor was an American actress and musician. Although her career spanned several decades, she may be best remembered for her performance as Brigid O'Shaughnessy in The Maltese Falcon .
Astor began her long motion picture career as a teenager in the silent movies of the early 1920s. When talkies arrived, her voice was initially considered too masculine and she was off the screen for a year. After she appeared in a play with friend Florence Eldridge, film offers returned, and she resumed her career in sound pictures.
In 1936, Astor's career was nearly destroyed by scandal. She had an affair with playwright George S. Kaufman and was branded an adulterous wife by her ex-husband during a custody fight over their daughter. Overcoming these stumbling blocks in her private life, she went on to greater film success, eventually winning an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her portrayal of concert pianist Sandra Kovak in The Great Lie .
Astor was a Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer contract player through most of the 1940s and continued to work in film, television and on stage until her retirement in 1964. She authored five novels. Her autobiography was a bestseller, as was her later book, A Life on Film, which was about her career.
One of Hollywood's most beautiful and talented actors: never gave a poor performance
So pretty, skilled.
It wouId be nice to have pictures of what is taIked about whiIe it's being taIked about, rather than just recycling random photos.
It's just an AI bot reading their Wikipedia page. There's probably much better videos out there for this
This is just some robot reading from Mary Astor's Wikipedia page
True facts
IKR? I knew it from just hearing a few words in. I hate these channels
It is so annoying - welcome to the latest dystopian world.
Didn't realize Bette had "stepped back" in her role in The Great Lie. Both were great in their roles but I give a nod to Mary as being better in her role. Have watched TGL several times. One of my favorite scenes is when Sandra(Mary)met Maggie(Bette)in that swank restuarant and told her she was pregnant with Maggie's screen husband being the father.
Por favor pueden traducir al castellano la vida de esta maravillosa actriz
Reading off Wikipedia. That took research I am sure lol.
She was beautiful. I never understood why she wore her beautiful hair so short.
She had a perfect face.
God these voices they use.
Why AI?
Davis' ego would never let herself " step back", lol...Mary Astor acted Davis right off the screen! Astor was a much more natural actress whose work withstands the test of time. Davis overacts embarrassingly.
