One of Joan Crawford's greatest performances!, 23 September 1998
7/10
Author: Patrick Sullivan (sullivpj@sce.com) from Los Angeles, California

The fact that Joan Crawford failed to win an Oscar nomination for her magnificent performance in this film is a travesty! Her talents as an actress were never more evident in her portrayal of a bitter woman who hates the world because of her disfigurement.
