Beautiful actress starred in many big films of those times as "Around the World in 80 Days", getting a contract at Columbia Pictures. From then on, her career started getting bigger and bigger.

Evelyn Keyes spoke for the last time about her life and career in a 1999 interview:

"To become a big movie star like Joan Crawford you need to wear blinders and pay single-minded attention to your career. Nobody paid attention to me, including me. I was the original Cinderella girl, looking for the happy ending in the fairy story. But my fantasy prince never came."
