To most of us who have worked with Stanwyck she is the all time best actress - very considerate to her co-workers. The American Society of Cinematographers is comprised of the top directors of photography in the world and, at a recent meeting, one of our members was moaning about his star giving him a bad time and trying to be difficult. A half dozen voices called to him: "Have her take a lesson from Barbara Stanwyck!" In the early days, Mary Pickford was known as "America's Sweetheart" - and by the same token, Barbara Stanwyck was and still is The Sweetheart of the Motion Picture Industry.
- Ray Rennahan
killin’ it, Barb
“I was sentimental about many things: a woman’s shoes under the bed; one hairpin left behind on the dresser; the way they said, “I’m going to pee..”’ hair ribbons; walking down the boulevard with them at 1:30 in the afternoon, just two people walking together; the long nights of drinking and smoking; talking; the arguments; thinking of suicide; eating together and feeling good; the jokes; the laughter out of nowhere; feeling miracles in the air; being in a parked car together; comparing past loves at 3am; being told you snore; hearing her snore; mothers, daughters, sons, cats, dogs; sometimes death and sometimes divorce; but always carrying on, always seeing it through; reading a newspaper alone in a sandwich joint and feeling nausea because she’s now married to a dentist with an I.Q. of 95; racetracks, parks, park picnics; even jails; her dull friends; your dull friends; your drinking, her dancing; your flirting, her flirting; her pills, your fucking on the side and her doing the same; sleeping together.”
-Charles Bukowski, Women
