Bette Davis appears in one of her greatest roles, but was joined by four other cast members and the writer/director in receiving Oscar nominations. NR 2hr 18min.

Are you crazy for movies? The WRL Film Society is a discussion group for movie lovers, with meetings on the first Sunday of each month at 1 pm at the Williamsburg Library. At meetings, members will share their views on the films they have recently watched (no major spoilers!) and discuss a set of questions posed by the group leaders, Neil Hollands and Mandy Malone. This is a group for fans of films of all kinds across time—classic films, arthouse films, blockbusters, or even guilty pleasures. A list of recommended films and discussion questions will be made available a month in advance.
To get on our mailing list for the group, send a request with your email address through the Ask a Librarian form at https://www.wrl.org/ask-a-librarian/.
