Being a Marx Brothers fan, I first became familiar with Virginia Grey due to her being the leading lady in The Marx Brothers film, The Big Store (1940). Later I came to realize just how good of a career this wonderful actress had. True she may not be a household name but she certainly has a very impressive filmography. Some of her movies include, Uncle Tom's Cabin (1927, her screen debut at the age of 10), Our Relations (1936, with Laurel and Hardy), The Women (1939), Another Thin Man (1939), Unconquered (1947), Mexican Hayride (1948, with Abbott and Costello), All That Heaven Allows (1955), Portrait in Black (1960), Bachelor in Paradise (1961, with Bob Hope) and Airport (1970).
