Joan Crawford delivers a ferocious performance in this scorching domestic melodrama. She stars as Eva Phillips, a Southern socialite who, though she appears to be the epitome of grace and charm, is really a tyrant who rules her friends and family with an iron fist. When Eva ruthlessly derails her sister-in-law Carol’s (Betsy Palmer) wedding plans by revealing an affair she had with her fiancé, Phillips-estate caretaker Judson Prentiss (John Ireland), it sends shockwaves through the family and threatens to shatter Eva’s picture-perfect image forever.
