Directed by: William Wyler
Written by: Lillian Hellman
Cast: Bette Davis, Herbert Marshall, Teresa Wright

A superbly acted and sumptuously conceived screen adaptation of Lillian Hellman's play, set in the Deep South, where a sickeningly wealthy family turns in on itself through the corruption of greed and hatred. A splendid reminder of Hollywood's more auspicious past.
