this performance from davis is spellbinding. toland did such an amazing job with the cinematography (he also did Citizen Kane). absolutely awesome film -

[respecthewoman]

dang what a wicked hearted woman she played in this film and its not the first time she's been married to him in a film and did him dirty the other one was in the letter. lol gosh

@Geo789C In order to decide whether she committed murder, you'd have to look at the specific law for the jurisdiction (state) where she was living at that time. The criminal laws in the US (including criminal negligence law, which was likely very undeveloped) were different then. However, the real problem is the lack of evidence against Regina - no witnesses and her husband was about to die anyway. Even his being in a wheelchair doesn't quite work, as he walked upstairs the day before.

@J1eanCag (continued...) Regina has no other way of getting money and the life she wants except cadging it out of some man like Horace, and if he says "No" then she's stuck. It's not like she can go out and get a job, or even inherit her own money. Plus, she's going to be the one thing keeping her daughter from being forced to marry Leo or some other jerk the brothers want to do a deal with. Regina does a bad thing, but she gets a bit of an unfair shake IMHO.

[squeapler]

@J1eanCag I was thinking along similar lines. On the one hand, Horace is clearly set up as the "nice, sympathetic" guy and against the moral wrongdoings of the two brothers who rip off the poor and underpay wages; Regina is set up as the mean, frigid b****. Yet, if Regina didn't have that personality, and didn't look out for herself by marrying a relatively rich man in the first place, her brothers would have dominated her and ultimately abused her just like poor Birdie..

@Geo789C

yes she did. she has been killing him all along. deliberately and with malice of forethought. one of the reasons she chose him as a husband was because he was weak...the same reason her brother chose birdie. their family were the foxes...the other the grapes...do try to keep up

[OfShadowandSubstance]

@Geo789C Criminal negligence can be considered murder in the US, depending on the case. This might fall under the umbrella of criminally negligent homicide, but it'd be difficult to prove in court.

Wow, look at that badass hat.

WANT.
