Shirley Booth's performance in the movie

Come Back, Little Sheeba is off the charts. I'd never seen this movie but have always heard about it. I just watched it a couple of days ago.

What an poignant portrayal of the human condition.

Yes. Hazel (in which she won two Emmys for). And she won three Tony's.

Her performance as Hazel was just one of her many achievements
