British Real Photograph postcard, no. F.S. 42. Googie Withers, Dana Andrews and John McCallum at the Daily Express Film Ball. Caption: These three stars are having a friendly chat between dances at the Daily Express Film Ball.
American film actor Dana Andrews (1909-1992) was a major Hollywood star during the 1940s. He continued acting in less prestigious roles into the 1980s. He is remembered for his roles as a police detective-lieutenant in the Film Noir Laura (1944) and as war veteran Fred Derry in The Best Years of Our Lives (1946), the latter being the role for which he received the most critical praise. During his career, he worked with such directors as Otto Preminger, Fritz Lang, William Wyler, Jean Renoir, and Elia Kazan.
British entertainer Googie Withers (1917-2011) had a long career in theatre, film, and television. From 1935 on, she appeared in more than 60 films and television productions, including some of the finest films of their time: Powell and Pressburger's One of Our Aircraft is Missing (1942), Miranda (1948), in which Glynis Johns played the mermaid and Withers the all-too-normal woman; and Jules Dassin's Film Noir Night and the City (1950), starring Richard Widmark.
