Description
Cast: Miriam Hopkins, Jack La Rue, William Gargan
In an electrifying performance, Hopkins is Temple Drake, the well-to-do daughter of a small-town Southern judge. When Temple is kidnapped by a bootlegger, she finds herself immersed in a criminal underworld of vice and degradation. This fast-paced adaptation of William Faulkner’s luridly compelling novel Sanctuary eliminates some of the book’s most shocking details, but still manages to provide several jolts.
