My top 5 Myrna Loy films:
(My rankings are based on my top 5 favorite Myrna Loy performances, not my 5 favorite films out of her overall filmography.)
#1. The Thin Man (1934)
~My #1 definitely has to be a film that teams her with William Powell,
so why not just go with the most iconic.
#2. Penthouse (1933)
~Loy as the sophisticated call-girl with a sweet side and the heart-of-gold, what's not to LOVE!
#3. The Best Years of Our Lives (1946)
~Fredric March is one of my favorite actors and I think Loy and March play off each other in such a way that exudes tenderness and understanding, which is perfect for their characters in the film.
#4. Libeled Lady (1936)
~The quartet of Loy, Powell, Tracy, and Harlow is an acting dream team and Loy more than holds her own, she shines bright.
#5. Love Me Tonight (1932)
~While her role in this phenomenal film may be small, it is still juicy and she plays it in a deliciously tongue-in-cheek manner. -
