It All Came True

Pure Hollywood Entertainment 1940
Ann Sheridan Lights up the screen in this pure Entertainment from the Hollywood Dream factory 1940. Shes Witty, Smart, Talented and a "Good Sort" to boot.Humphrey Bogart Sends himself up as a tough guy,And this added to the enjoyment I got out of this movie.Una O`Connor, a character actress,and very funny, plays Ann Sheridan`s mother.The music numbers are magical,and Ann`s melody of songs at the end of the movie is a pure delight.
This is a Warner Archive Movie,The picture is clear and bright,the sound is excellent mono quality ,Nothing distracted me enjoying this movie.The movie was discounted by Amazon,$18.99,and although its still expensive for a dvd,I got my money worth here..

Sheridan at her very best. A forgotten gem.
This is one of Ann Sheridan's best movies in my opinion. One of my favorite parts of the movie is when she dances and sings. Ann Sheridan was a tough cookie but I found her to be funny, cute and tough in this movie. It's her movie even though Humphrey Bogart is not too far behind in an underrated performance. He was both tough and funny. He did so many gangster movies it would have been nice to see him play more characters like this. He was mostly used as the rotten evil irredeemable gangster who both made Jimmy Cagney and Edward G. Robinson likable and is usually shot by both of them. Bogart's character was so likable and this movie was a treat.
I didn't want to buy this due to the price but when I saw it I know I made the right decision. I've rewatched it a few times and every viewing gets better. It's a nice funny movie. It has good acting but if you are looking for an Oscar worthy movie you might want to see another movie. This is a must for Bogart fans. It's great for...

A treasure of a movie
This is just a delightful, fun movie from 1940 with a great cast. I saw this on TCM for the first time recently and can't believe as a devoted classic movie buff, I hadn't seen this one. Bogart wonderful Ann Sheriden is wonderful and the treasure of the movie is Una O'Connor, an Irish actress with a great Irish brogue, feisty, loving, so funny and a pleasure to watch. Buying this dvd for the pure enjoyment of it and so that I can see Ms. Ocnnor over and over again.
