question*

1939 was a great year for American Films - Gone with The Wind,The
Wizard of Oz and so many more. Yet hidden on the list was a minor film
starring one of the world's greatest comediennes. Her film was such a
smash that it started a series of EIGHT films starring her that lasted
up to 1943.
Here is a notable quote by her: The first time you buy a house you
think how pretty it is and sign the check. The second time you look to
see if the basement has termites. It's the same with men. Name this
actress.
