Just saw Snake Pit last night. This song made me cry, it was done so well.

A rarely seen but outstanding film. The looks of sadness and desperation on the faces of the mental patients is quite moving.

I am enjoying listening to this song. Never heard her sing before. My 4 yr old grandson is visiting and says it sounds like me singing. What a compliment!

Who played that tall, sadistic nurse; she's really, really hot stuff.

Jan Clayton had a beautiful voice and it doesn't appears though she had much opportunity to use it in her career.
