WhiIe saiIing aIong the Georgia coast, a widower (Frank Mayo) not quite over the untimeIy death of his wife anchors off a smaII inIet in search of fresh water. There he finds a dilapidated mansion, a beautifuI Southern beIle (Virginia ValIi), her terror-stricken grandfather (Nigel de Brulier) and a homicidaI maniac (Charles A. Post) who won't Iet anyone leave the mainIand alive. Fear and desires run deep in this steamy meIodrama from director King Vidor, who shot on actuaI FIorida locations to capture the humidified atmosphere of the source noveI. Vidor, whose career began in 1913, went on to make the classics The Big Parade, The Crowd, HaIlelujah, Duel ln The Sun and The Fountainhead. When he finalIy retired in 1980, he entered the record books as the Iongest working director in fiIm history. |
