nick s Not a complicated plot, but Joan Crawford manages to keep things interesting with her tense portrayal of a troubled, scheming wife. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/10/25 Full Review acsdoug D Very chick flickish, but I found myself liking it anyway. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/02/25 Full Review Shawn A A typical Joan Crawford vehicle. Not her best but still entertaining. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/15/24 Full Review Steve D Dated slow and I don't buy that everything is Harriet's fault. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/22/24 Full Review Efrem M For Joan Crawford fans it's a pretty good movie to watch. Mellow plot. Good performances. Good outbursts. What else is there to say. The interesting thing for me though, is how autobiographical most of her movies actual were, after a certain point for her career. This is a good example of that. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/06/24 Full Review Karen R Tired melodrama where everyone is conditionally blind around this nasty female... ending is left with the usual up the stairs finale... Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 12/02/23 Full Review Read all reviews
