Ann Sheridan: “Honestly, this elopement talk is driving me completely screwy. George (Brent) and I haven't even discussed getting married. I don’t want to get married now, and I know he doesn’t either.” George Brent: “I'll put up $10,000 in cold cash at 10 te 1 that I don’t get married for at least three vears. And don’t think that's any reflection against Ann (Sheridan). “I'm going to wind up my picture contract in three vears and I don’t intend to make anv marriage plans until I do.
