Happy 100th birthday Eva Marie Saint! Her best films – ranked

Born on 4 July, one of the last true stars of Hollywood’s golden age celebrates her centenary next week. We look back at the landmark roles of a 75-year career

Eva Marie Saint’s character and her playwright husband (Carl Reiner) play two of the islanders sent into a tizzy when a Soviet submarine runs aground on the New England coastline where they are on holiday. This cold war farce was a hit back in the days when you could play a Russian invasion for comedy. Now it just makes the similarly themed 1941 seem a laugh riot by comparison.
