Description
Cast: Clint Eastwood, Geraldine Page, Elizabeth Hartman
A wounded Union army soldier is kept hidden by the denizens of an academy for young Southern women. The swaggering Yankee charms his way into the lives of several of the seminary’s residents, until jealousy and resentment begin to take hold. Siegel has crafted a compellingly creepy tale that is an amalgam of the Western, tragic romance, and gothic horror.
