Yesterday was the hundredth anniversary of Gene Tierney's day of birth. Sadly, she died a little over nineteen years ago. Many of her films spring immediately to mind, many of them delirious, by the likes of Preminger, Lubitsch, Stahl and Mankiewicz. Her greatest was one of her first, Sternberg's the Shanghai Gesture, playing Poppy, aka Victoria Charteris.
