Known to the general public due to some western films, the actress claims for his "anti-vamp" mainly due to the sweetness of the lineaments of her face, in sharp contrast to women more in vogue at the time. Suffice it to say that the face that Walt Disney conceived in the years ' 30 to interpret the figure of snow white was inspired by that of Janet.
The Gaynor is one of the few actresses of the ' 20 's 30 that manages to make switching between silent and sound successfully, thanks largely to the very sweet and musical voice that is associated with female characters often delicate and infantile. The success was not long in arriving here too and won again the Academy Award for best actress in A Star Is Born (1937).
Janet retires from public life in 1938, leaving the scene at the age of 32 years.
