  • Thanks Keith,
    I like interesting facts like that. I would have guessed Clair Trevor to be in the top three actrsess.But , I can only come up with four that she costared in.Can anyone name the four?

  • Hi the westener,


    Thanks for your comments,
    there is however a dedicated thread on


    Claire Trevor


    and of course the answer is there in my reply post, re-posted here:-


    Claire Trevor, was a lifelong friend of Duke,
    but she made only 4 films with him
    The High and the Mighty (1954) .... May Holst
    Dark Command (1940) .... Miss Mary McCloud
    Allegheny Uprising (1939) .... Janie MacDougall
    Stagecoach (1939) .... Dallas


    She and Duke had tremendous chemistry,no more so than in
    Stagecoach where it almost leaps out of the screen.


    They remained lifelong friends and neighbours at Long Beach,
    After the death of Duke's friend Chuck Iverson's son,
    Duke wrote Claire a letter that she treasured,
    the actress said,
