Movie Reviews:

• Andres Gomez: This classic is a must with great dialogues and script with a great performance from Bette Davis.
• JPV852: Excellent performances by everyone, especially Bette Davis, Anne Baxter and George Sanders, which kept me captivated more so than the story, though the dialogue was amazing. Nothing fantastic all in all but still entertaining. **4.0/5**
