Bette davis, susan hayward. Deforest kelley, a couple years before star trek! The film opens by showing us the beautiful, if slightly aged, dark film scenes of san francisco. Coit tower, the bay bridge, the golden gate bridge. And that opening song is sung by jack jones, who also sang the theme to love boat. Joey heatherton is danny, the daughter who has just killed someone. The story is now about the trial and how it affects their family life. Geraldine hayden (davis) is controlling (or trying to control) everyone's life. She meddles in just everything, including her daughter valerie's life (hayward), and even her grand-daughter danny. When things hit the fan, can the family stick together? Joan crawford must have been busy... the role of controlling grandma is so similar to queen bee, or harriet craig. The story starts there, and gets much more complicated. And a bit dark. Directed by edward dmytryk. This film was nominated for best song.
