35MM PRESENTATION
Though it's named for its eponymous heroine, Mildred Pierce is driven by insidious Veda, Mildred's daughter, and one of the most greedy young women in noir history. Seemingly driven to wealth and its trappings since birth, Veda manipulates her hard-working mother to give her everything, without a drop of compassion in her black soul. Mildred Pierce won Joan Crawford a well-deserved Oscar, but Ann Blyth is captivating as the poisonous daughter.
