Way, way over the top melodrama in which Bette Davis is willing to sacrifice everything - reputation, true love, and even her own son! - just be noble. Modern audiences are sure to be rolling their eyes at the end. And of course she gets her reward in the end when the good, crippled wife she gave up Henry Fonda and her son to, kicks the bucket.
It's well made and well acted, but just too much to swallow. A 3 rating.
