 She received critical acclaim the next year for her role as Elizabeth Bennet in the 1940 film "Pride and Prejudice".Garson starred with Joan Crawford in "When Ladies Meet", a 1941 poorly received and sanitized re-make of a Pre-Code version of the same name, which had starred Ann Harding and Myrna Loy.That same year, she became a major box-office star with the sentimental Technicolor drama "Blossoms in the Dust", which brought her the second of five consecutive Best Actress Oscar nominations, tying Bette Davis's 1938–1942 record, which still stands.
