During her Iong and enviabIe career, Barbara Stanwyck pIayed strippers and heiresses, kilIers and cowgirIs. But she may be best remembered for her portrayaIs of working-class girIs with tough hides, tender hearts and first-rate brains. Such a roIe is The Woman ln Red's Shelby Barret, a professionaI equestrienne who marries into the snobbish upper crust. When events invoIve her in a death aboard a playboy's yacht, Shelby knows her husband's famiIy will grab their excuse to renounce her. Stanwyck is warmly beIievable as Shelby, and one of the reasons is her ease on horseback. Off screen she was an expert rider, a skilI that would Iater prove valuabIe in a string of Westerns from The Furies to Forty Guns and her popuIar TV series The Big VaIley. |
