- Biographie:
- Carole Lombard (née Jane Alice Peters le 6 octobre 1908 à Fort Wayne, Indiana, États-Unis – morte le 16 janvier 1942) est une actrice américaine de la première moitié du XXe siècle. Elle est surtout connue pour ses rôles dans des comédies des années 1930 devenues des classiques. Elle commence sa carrière à la fin des années 1920 dans la troupe des Bathing Beauties de Mack sennett. Lombard devient une des plus grandes actrices de comédies de Hollywood dans les années 1930. En 1932, elle tourne Un mauvais garçon qui marquera sa rencontre avec Clark Gable, son futur second époux, dans leur unique film ensemble. On lui proposa le rôle d'Ellie Andrews dans New York-Miami (It Happened One Night) (1934), mais les dates de tournage chevauchaient celles de Bolero ce qui la contraint à refuser3. Malgré son charme, elle était une comédienne naturelle, et n'avait pas peur de paraître idiote pour faire rire. Sa vivacité et son humour vont s’affirmer pleinement1 dans des comédies comme Twentieth Century (1934) réalisé par Howard Hawks, Mon homme Godfrey (1936) réalisé par Gregory La Cava, et La Joyeuse Suicidée (Nothing Sacred) (1937) réalisé par William A. Wellman, elle reçoit les louanges des critiques et est décrite comme l'une des pièces maîtresses de la screwball comedy. Cependant, elle joue plusieurs rôles dramatiques notamment dans L'Autre avec Cary Grant ou dans Vigil in the Night, interprétant l'infirmière Anne Lee face à Brian Aherne. Produit par David O. Selznick, La Joyeuse Suicidée sera son seul film en Technicolor. Mariée à l'acteur Clark Gable, elle meurt dans un accident d'avion.
