Hush...Hush, Sweet Charlotte 1964? well the house where Bette Davis lives stands in the way for development (think it was a freeway). It's also the reason she invites Olivia de Havilland, and all sorts of skeletons keeps coming out of the closets. Oh, I like that. Good outside-the-box thinking: it's not the sort of film that would automatically occur when considering the topic, but it applies. Although not involving water, like Wild River, it concerns a lone holdout against development, up against an irrevocable deadline and regarded by authorities as an old lady who may fall anywhere on a scale between eccentric and crazy. And like Chinatown, the premise exposes greed, corruption and dark family secrets. Great choice. |
