MGM dropped me right back into the vamp mold, loaning me to RKO for Thirteen Women. I methodically murder all the white schoolmates who had patronized me. Betty Furness had started at RKO doubled for my hands in closeups when I was busy elsewhere. She’d been dropped from the film. “You were lucky.” I told her. “Because I just would have killed you, too.” The only one who had escaped me in that picture was Irene Dunne, I regretted it every time she got the parts I wanted.
-Myrna Loy on Thirteen Women (1932)
“When we did a scene together, we forgot about technique, camera angles, and microphones. We weren’t acting. We were just two people in perfect harmony,” he said. “Myrna, unlike some actresses who think only of themselves, has the happy faculty of being able to listen while the other fellow says his lines. She has the give and take of acting that brings out the best.“ – William Powell
