Loretta Young brought luminous, graceful sincerity to Hollywood melodrama, and her best roles paired real warmth with dramatic conviction. The Farmer’s Daughter sends a Swedish farm girl running for Congress, The Bishop’s Wife grows an angel closer to a bishop’s neglected wife, Come to the Stable builds a children’s hospital with two French nuns, and Cause for Alarm! races to intercept a letter accusing her. The Call of the Wild and Midnight Mary round out the list.
