Goofs:
Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): Jerry (Paul Henreid) introduces Charlotte (Bette Davis) as 'Camille' to his friends on the cruise line. Later, when the foursome take a break from shuffleboard and the two women retire to deck chairs, Deb McIntyre (Lee Patrick) calls her Charlotte.

This is what great film making is all about. Everything comes together in this classic movie, and Bette never looked more beautiful decked out in fabulous 1940's clothes designed by Orry-Kelly. Most everyone can relate to the downtrodden Charlotte Vale under the viscous thumb of her selfish mother. And who doesn't stand up and cheer when Charlotte defies her mother, finds love and starts to live her own life? Bette's performance is subdued, and there's no chewing up the scenery here because it's a great script that needs little enhancement. Filled with great lines and classic scenes, this is one film that every true classic film lover needs in their collection.
