Playing one’ of the most de lightful characters ever created by Louis “Rains Came” Brora- field, Ann Is at once -bjold and beantlful, hot-tempered and hon est. She is sontimental but is the last person In the world to admit It. She sings, does the rhumba, and “hangs one” on the Jaw of a would-be talent scout, aii with equal proficiency. With the quaintness, charm and dramatic suspense of the Bromfield novel, “It All Came True” tells the story of a group of people who live in a New York hoarding house run by tva sen timental old women, using'it as a refuge where they can fight off the reality of the present and dwell in the fond meimories of the past. The complacent atmos phere of the bouse is shattered when first Ann, daughter of one of the landladies comes home to roost and again when the house keeper’s son, Jeffry Lynn, returns home after an absence of five years, with a gangster who in tends to use the house as a hide out. The gangster, played by Humphrey Bogart, is so won over by the motherly ministrations he receives that he offers to straight en out the financial difficulties of the boarding house by convert ing it into a night club with a “Gay Nineties” background. From there the story works up to a surprise climax. Cleverly worked into the story are the songs “The Gaucho Sere nade” and "Angel In Disguise.’’ Lewis Seiler directed the screen play by Michael Fessier and Law rence Kimble adapted from the Bromfield novel.
