This is a very gentle story that follows its own path rather than being scripted. Even though the actors are getting on in years they still have that magic spark that captures your imagination. Bette Davis and Vincent Price are the two actors that do that but it really is Lillian Gish that steels the show and it doesn't matter that none of them are still with us as this timeless classic will keep them close to hand.
