#WomanEmpowermentWednesday Carole Lombard Handling Fredric March on set of "Nothing Sacred" (1937)



Fredric March had a long-running reputation for groping actresses while on set from Claudette Colbert who straight out complained to Cecil B DeMille and warning fellow actresses to Sylvia Sydney who just wrote it off as "playful banter." But while shooting "Nothing Sacred" (1937) with Carole Lombard, Lombard had little time for his sexual advances which would happen far too frequently. "She cured the problem by inviting him to her dressing room for a drink and allowing him to rub his hand up to her thigh where she had strapped on a rubber dildo." (Tapet. The Power of Glamour: The Women Who Defined the Magic of Stardom) March never bothered Lombard ever again.
