Who's the brunette who answers the phone/payroll clerk then gets on


Spoilers.

Jean Arthur calls her friend, the brunette, she then asks for the number of the payroll clerk, the brunette then hands the phone to the payroll clerk.
Who's the brunette?

By the way I thought many aspects of this movie were great.
Was the movie stupid? Sure. Typical mgm let's all go on a cruise and be happy.
Still Jean Arthur is usually always great(if you like JA) and Charles Coburn puts in his standard "A" class acting.

It's been a little time since I saw "Devil" but I believe the woman you ask about was called by name when Miss Jones telephoned and I believe the actress is credited at IMDb. Alas, I do not recall the character's name so I can't give you the definitive answer. But I do think if you look at the complete cast listing you'll find her. Good luck.

The character is Dorothy. The actress...Julie Warren.

Thank you for going to the trouble to give us that info.

Didn't she look a bit like Jeannie Crain or something?
