The king of melodrama, Douglas Sirk, helms this tawdry tale of lost dreams & drunken hopes among an oil rich Texas family in the 1950's. Rock Hudson, Lauren Bacall, Robert Stack & Oscar winner Dorothy Malone star in this impossibly irresistible over the top soap opera. Beautiful technicolor & inventive shots highlight this fable which goes down like a shot of old scotch.
