Soap Opera Supreme!, 28 December 1998
6/10
Author: Patrick Sullivan (sullivpj@sce.com) from Los Angeles, California

Yes, this film is the "queen of all soap operas," but it has one thing going for it. And that's the acting of Lana Turner, who gives the performance of her career. If you don't shed a tear at the end of this film, you are made of stone!
