New Orleans, 1852. A spoiled and stubborn southern girl overdrives with defiance and games until her fiancé leaves her and goes to New York. In solitude, she realizes what she has lost and decides to bring him back at the first opportunity. But when, a year later, the former fiancé returns to New Orleans in the middle of the Yellow Fever epidemic, she realizes that she has waited too long.
A story of love, growing up, self-sufficiency, and redemption, set in vivid images of the South in the middle of the nineteenth century, much resembling "Gone with the Wind". This movie doesn't even come close to its more famous peer, but it is elevated from mediocrity by the masterful performance of the legendary Bette Davis in one her strongest roles, for which she won an Oscar.
7/10
