Late Shearer — in Robert Sherwood's Idiot's Delight. speare's Juliet in one of the ventures into literature Thalberg so frequently undertook. He died in 1936, and without him her career did not fare well. She turned down two pictures — Gone With the Wind and Mrs. Miniver — that would have, to say the least, revived her career, and she made, instead, films that were either trifles or ponderous bores. Her last two films failed miserably, and she said later, "On those last two, no one but myself was trying to do me in." What meanings are we to take from all this?
