"Virginia was always recognisable by those big sparkling eyes and always exuded a spirited abundance of energy to every performance. Even in her later films. She was obviously multi-talented as were so many actresses of high calibre beauty and brains in that wonderful golden era."

"4th, 5th, 6th billing and she was often better than the lead. Not only a looker but certainly a good actress.. Any movie she was in was all the better for being in it!"

After being jilted after seeing Clark Gable for seven years, Virginia Grey carried a torch for the star for rest of her life, never marrying (hence returning to Mormonism later in her life perhaps!). Or so the story goes.
