Mary Pickford is most famous as an actress, but also produced nearly 40 films! Among them was Sleep, My Love, which stars Claudette Colbert as a socialite whose husband attempts to slowly drive her insane, in hopes of her committing suicide and leaving him her fortune. In the meantime, an amateur detective falls in love with her, and tries to save her from her husband's schemes. Director Douglas Sirk dotes on Colbert, bringing out one of her most emotional performances, in a film featuring two other legends of the silver screen: Robert Cummings (Dial M for Murder) and the Oscar-winning Don Ameche.
