Starting with a stellar cast, Eve Arden is a jewel as always, this movie made at a time when certain words and certain subjects were taboo managed to hit on various subjects. Bigotary, adultery, dysfunctional family, death etc. Robert Preston and Dorothy McGuire are the Floods who the story centers around while Angela Lansbury and Lee Kinsolving lend splendid support as does the rest of the cast. Given the time this movie was made and the censorship in place at the time this movie should be a must see for adults due to the subject matter involved. So give yourself a treat and watch this jewel if you get the chance. You won't be disappointed.
