I've heard of her but I've never seen a film with Claudette Colbert.

Claudette, French name, make me think of Claude François , a really famous 60's and 70's french singer. Intellectual people enjoy disliking him and his lyrics but everybody (in France) always dance on his music. It's old fashionned but dynamic and funny disco.
You can listen to "Magnolias for ever" and "Alexandrie Alexandra" with RealOne Player

He was also famous in dancing with short dressed girls . It was the first time in France. They were called "Les Claudettes". Do you want to dance with them Brianna ?
He's for us a kind of legend with a lot of incredible look-alikes (like Elvis Presley's ones).
Claude François died electrocuted in his bathroom.

My screen name comes from Star wars. George Lucas used this method to find the names of the different characters (like ObiWan Kenobi):
First syllable : First syllable of my family name
Second syllable : First syllable of my first name
Third syllable : First syllable of my mother's family name
Fourth syllable : First syllable of the city where I live.
