Plots(1)
A superbly crafted dramatization of Nobel Prize-winning author William Faulkner's first nationally published short story, this is the tale of an indomitable Southern woman who clutched the past so resolutely that life itself was denied. The film is at once a twentieth century Gothic tale, a psychological study of isolation, and a history of the decay of the old order. Starring Anjelica Huston as Miss Emily Grierson, and featuring John Carradine in a cameo role, the film is narrated by John Houseman. (official distributor synopsis)
