Crawford's final Warners film
by nickandrew2002-12-27

"This was Joan Crawford's final film under her Warner Brothers contract. She hated the film, but accepted it anyway to complete her agreement with the studio. It is not as bad as everyone thinks it is, but it is odd to see Joan as a lady gangster, going blind, and finding true love with the surgeon (Dennis Morgan) who restores her sight...."

💡 Did You Know?

When summing up the film in the New York Times, Howard Thompson, the film critic known for his one line reviews, simply stated: "This picture is trash." Joan Crawford told the audience at the Town Hall "Legendary Ladies" show in 1972 that she considered this her worst film.
