One of the most popular screen performers of the 1940s and early 1950s, Betty Hutton gave unfettered, go-for-broke performances in musicals like "Annie Get Your Gun" and comedies like "The Miracle of Morgan’s Creek" (1942) before enduring one of the grimmest declines in Hollywood history. She battled her way out of a troubled childhood to become a star on Broadway before making her feature debut in 1942’s "The Fleet’s In." Audiences were charmed by her limitless energy and charm, and she soon became a top box office draw. The emotional problems of her early years took their toll on her personal life, and by the early 1950s, her career was in decline, jeopardized by mounting addictions and depression. She vanished from sight until the early 1970s, when she was found recuperating at a rectory in Rhode Island; Hutton mounted a modest comeback, marked by exceptional frankness about her struggles, until her death in 2007. Her unsinkable screen persona retained its popularity thanks to home video, which preserved her unique style for decades to come.
