		In honor of Myrna Loy, a poem was created called, Montana Women, which was read at the celebration of her 86th birthday.
		Loy's auburn hair photographed dark, and the combination of her striking features-sleepy blue eyes, prominent, upturned nose, pursed lips, and strong chin-gave her an exotic allure interpreted most frequently by filmmakers as being Oriental in nature.
		Loy's witty, winning performance in Penthouse (also 1933), a stylish mystery melodrama written by Frances Good- rich and Albert Hackett and directed by W. Van Dyke, convinced MGM to costar her in The Thin Man (1934), a sophisticated Dashiell Hammett mystery being prepared by the same creative team.

		Of pioneer ancestry, all-American Myrna Williams was born in 1905 on a Montana farm.
		For most of Loy's long Hollywood career she was known as "the perfect wife." On the basis of this memoir, it would seem that she was also pretty nearly "the perfect human being" as well.
		Myrna didn't want to be a bombshell, not a society type, not a glamour queen, she wanted to be all of it, be a lady, be tough, speak her mind, but still have class, dignity, and be a bombshell, high society type, glamour queen all together.

		In 1929-1930 Myrna was again playing stereotypes in such films as The Great Divide, The Jazz Cinderella, Cameo Kirby, Isle of Escape, and Under A Texas Moon, but with Cock O´ The Walk she portrayed characters a little more complex than exotic temptresses.
