Happy Birthday Teresa Wright (1918 - 2005)

Teresa Wright in The Little Foxes

Happy Birthday to Teresa Wright, my all time movie crush. I absolutely adore her. She was an amazing actress. My favorite films of hers are The Little Foxes (1941), Mrs. Miniver (1942), Shadow of a Doubt (1943), The Best Years Of Our Lives (1946) and The Pride of the Yankess (1942). A very talented and beautiful woman, who should have got more praise than she did. And she was always in Oscar-worthy form -- the only performer ever to be nominated for Oscars for her first three films, The Little Foxes, Mrs. Miniver, and Pride of the Yankees. How's that for amazing?

  1. That's a very remarkable and interesting tidbit, Monty. Thanks

    I found her very easy to watch in The Little Foxes(1941). She plays innocent very well without tumbling into the abyss of annoying or cloying.

  2. She appeared in films as recently as the 1990s. I remember her in "John Grisham's The Rainmaker"
