Joan Crawford acts her diamante studded socks off in a role which garnered her another nod from the Academy. Understatement was never one of Miss Crawford's closest friends but somehow she manages for most of the film as fabulously wealthy (and intelligent too!) Myra Hudson.
Of course, it's more fun when Joan Crawford loses the plot completely. The wild eyes, the screaming, the Bette-Davis-on-speed like zig zagging across the set. If you're a fan of the old Hollywood Goddesses or just camp actresses in general you'll love those moments.
Jack Palance is about as menacing as SpongeBob Sqaurepants. Gloria Grahame, bless her, tries her hardest but this is Joan's movie and she takes it all the way.
And then some!
