Blood curdling scene. Brilliant acting. In another time and empire the mother would have simply poisoned the daughter. Lol

He of course became one of the main narrators in American film & tele for his extraordinary voice and diction.

Thank you so much for this masterpiece! I remember I watched it on TV ages ago. I was in bed with a high fever that night, but the shivers I felt were from Paxinou's unforgettable performance...I love all the other actors, too, especially Rosalind Russell.

A real treasure
