“I couldn´t at first figure her out [while shooting “Whipsaw”]. I´d just come from the Riffraff set set, where Jean Harlow had spent her leisure time making life merry for me and the rest of the crew. But here was a girl who finished her scene and retired into a corner to study her script. There must be something wrong with one of us. I prowled around for a day or two, then I marched myself up to her: “What´s the matter with me? Have I got leprosy or something?”

Myrna smiled. “I´ve been wondering when you were going to come over and pay me a little attention.” That was all I needed. Twenty-four hours later we were on ribbing terms.
