Bancroft saving Compson from a suicide attempt.
Two isolated figures reach out to each other, searching in the darkness and chaos for a moment of immediate contact, of authentic emotion, that remains forever beyond their grasp.
--------------
Fog-enshrouded cinematography by Harold Rosson (The Wizard of Oz), expressionist set design by Hans Dreier (Sunset Boulevard), and sensual performances by Bancroft and Compson make this one of the legendary director's finest works, and one of the most exquisitely crafted films of its era.
