Recently, I was watching the great Bette Davis and Miriam Hopkins film, "Old Acquaintance" (1943), and I was struck by the resemblance between Ann Sheridan and Dolores Moran.
I'm embarrassed to admit that my only clear recollection of Ms. Moran is her part in 'To Have and Have Not'. Clearly, I need to re-watch 'Old Acquaintance'... anyone that can stand toe to toe with Bette deserves more attention.
When reading stories like this, I can't help but wonder if Hollywood is still this exploitative of young talent, and if so, how many Lila Leeds and Dolores Morans might be out there today.
