Ann Sheridan tribute

Also known as "The Oomph Girl," I always enjoyed Sheridan's work, in comedy, dramas, or melodramas. I never considered her a great actress, but I enjoyed watching her in everything. For a classic era actress, she was on of those rare "natural" actresses, foreshadowing what was to become the norm later in her career. I particularly loved her in Kings Row, City for Conquest, The Man Who Came to Dinner, George Washington Slept Here, I Was a Male War Bride, and Come Next Spring (1956), a film very hard to find today, but one that was a childhood favorite. I've always felt that it was one of best performances. But that's a distant child's memory, so I can't be sure. In any case, she was always a pleasure to watch, and it saddened me that she left us so soon.
