Ann Sheridan

The beautiful Ann Sheridan publicity picture, above, is for her 1940 film, It All Came True (directed by Lewis Seiler ). The fun comedy/drama has an outstanding cast – Ann Sheridan, Humphrey Bogart, Jeffrey Lynn, Zasu Pitts, Una O’Connor… is it any wonder it’s as good as it is?!

You can find It All Came True on dvd (Amazon link) or watch the movie on Prime Video.

Amazon also has a beautiful “Window Card” for the film, featuring beautiful Ann Sheridan (pictured below).

It seems almost impossible, but it’s the absolute truth – You can spend your life absorbed in old movies and still find new stars who blow you away. Maybe you had seen them in a movie or two but they hadn’t had the moment to truly shine in the ones you’d seen… and it’s not until you see them in their finest hour that you truly appreciate them.

If we’re being honest, this phenomenon is one of my favorite things about watching classic movies and television shows… meeting fascinating stars along the way!

Naturally, over the years, I’ve seen the gorgeous Ann Sheridan in movies. However, it was usually as a supporting character (such as the case with Castle on the Hudson, to name one). It wasn’t until recently, when I saw her in a few starring roles that I truly came to appreciate that Sheridan magic.

And did she ever have it?!

She is always a strong force to be reckoned with when she’s a supporting actress, but when the lady takes the lead, you’d better hang onto something.

If you’ve never seen the following movies, I wholeheartedly recommend them to you.

Ann SheridanMy name is Joi (“Joy”) and I created Hollywood Yesterday as my personal tribute to Old Hollywood. It’s my effort to help keep the stars from Old Hollywood, Classic Television, and Old Radio Shows alive and shining forever. Old Hollywood was positively magical and I see no reason for the magic to ever die.

Be warned, I am (by nature) overtly positive, I never take anything too seriously, I say extraordinary so often you’d think I invented the word, and I overuse exclamation points to distraction. I’m perpetually over-caffeinated.. we’ll blame that.

Read more about Hollywood Yesterday (and see my personal favorites) here!

My main goal with Hollywood Yesterday is to keep the names, faces, and films of the stars that mean so much to me shining brightly. When I’m guilty of focusing more time on my personal favorites (such as Olivia de Havilland) than other stars, I hope you’ll forgive me. I am, by all indications, very human!

Also, please know that I try to keep my posts (except for book reviews) short and to the point, so you can enjoy the pictures, grab the information, and get back to your life. I don’t appreciate anything that’s overly wordy, so I don’t want to do that to others. For better or worse, I write as I talk, so if you ever feel like you’re reading the words of someone who’s a cross between Lucy Ricardo, Daisy Duck, and a Jerry Lewis character, that’s just because you are!

Wait. What did I just admit to??

There’s nothing quite like watching a movie from the Golden Age of Hollywood. Whether it’s a Musical, Western, Comedy, Romance, Film Noir, or Drama – if it’s on, I’m not too far away… with popcorn and raspberry tea in hand and a couple of cats nearby.
