Instead, it signaled her passage into two kinds of films: small dramas, like Hilda Crane, Home Before Dark and All the Way Home, where her character was the focus; and splashy epics that concentrated on the men. She dallied with Newman in Until They Sail, supported Peck as he made his way across The Big Country and in Spartacus was the slave who is bought by Olivier but pines for Douglas.

After cobbling together 60 Senators for health reform through endless delays and deals - which thanks to Brown would now require cooperation from at least one Republican along...
