  4. Ann Sheridan day on #TCM — they are including the film with my favorite performance of hers, “It All Came True” (1940). This also features a great comic turn by Humphrey Bogart. Another fun film that doesn’t get enough attention.

  6. After seeing Ann Sheridan mostly wasted in “Navy Blues” (1941), I decided it was a good time to re-visit one of the too few films where she gets to showcase her abilities, “George Washington Slept Here” (1942) with Jack Benny.

  7. Ann Sheridan in her first full year in Hollywood, 1934, when she was still using her real name of Clara Lou.

    She was in about 20 films released that year, but if the handful I’ve seen are indicative, her total screen time may be under three minutes.

  8. Here’s Ann Sheridan on the set of “They Drive By Night”, directed by Raoul Walsh in the spring of 1940.

    What’s that book on the table next to her? It’s the recently-published “High Sierra” by W.R. Burnett, which Walsh would be directing a film version of by late summer.

  9. Ann Sheridan, #BOTD 1915, is pictured in this parade of Paramount rising stars in late 1933 or early 1934. She was still billed as Clara Lou Sheridan at the time.

    Other notables in the parade are Grace Bradley, Gail Patrick, Toby Wing and Ida Lupino. Can you pick them out?

  10. Ann Sheridan and Barton MacLane in “Wine, Women and Horses” (1937). This is the first time I’ve seen MacLane in a lead role where he wasn’t paired with Glenda Farrell.
