(16,984 posts)1. "The Whole Town's Talking" should not be confused...
...with another Jean Arthur film, The Talk of the Town, which is not only watchable but as timely as ever. TCM includes it in its roster of films.

(40,416 posts)2. I absolutely adore Jean Arthur!
I have seen only her big hits, but she never disappoints.
My faves:
You Can't Take it With You
Mr. Smith Goes to Washington
Sadly, I have never seen "Shane"

(16,984 posts)3. I haven't seen all of "Shane" either.
That's one for the list.
