Boston spinster blossoms under therapy and finds impossible romance.
This is the ultimate classic of the woman's picture, a historically limited subgenre, also known as the weepie. In this picture everything fits together like a glove, and Bette Davis delivers one of her best and most sophisticated roles. Altogether a meticulous example of Hollywood at its best.
Famous quote:
"Oh Jerry, don't let's ask for the moon. We have the stars."

I love those old posters. One of my favourite weepies. One of the rare pictures where Bette Davies plays a good girl.
