Myrna Loy Leaves Film for Stage Career on Tour
Myrna Loy, the 68 year old star famous for the Thin Man films, says she will not play cannibalistic or monster roles again.

Loy recalls a long career from 1922, details her shift from cinema to theatre, and comments on the decline of sophisticated film comedy and the need to learn on stage with an audience.
