Review of All That Heaven Allows (1955) by Jenna I — 20 Jan 2016
What a devastating movie! Also a real nugget of honesty in that 50s sea of posing and insincerity. Loved the commentary on being a woman and a widow in 50s suburbia mixed with the general human commentary on selfishness, love and honesty.
It's so rare to see a movie so humanizing and genuinely empathetic with its female lead, let alone during this time.
