Hollywood Mysteries #9 - Claudette Colbert, The Original Diva
This episode looks at the life of one of the brightest stars of Hollywood's Golden Age, Claudette Colbert. Born in Paris, she was the image of 1930s sophistication, and became known for her demanding personality on set. But behind the scenes she was living a life that meant the scandal papers were never far behind her. In truth she was fun-loving, a brilliant business woman and often deeply insecure.
After her starring, Oscar-winning role in "It Happened One Night", Claudette's star power was immense. But the most fascinating, and most challenging period of her life was just beginning.
So, settle in for another Hollywood Mystery, with the Film Noir mood of rain on a deserted L.A. sidewalk, deep into the night, as always.
