Movie Info
In the 1950s American South, the vicious and conniving Eva Phillips (Joan Crawford) makes the lives of those around her miserable -- especially her husband, Avery (Barry Sullivan), who resorts to heavy drinking and becomes an alcoholic. Meanwhile, when Eva discovers her sister-in-law (Betsy Palmer) is to wed her former lover (John Ireland), she really becomes nasty. Witnessing Eva's cruel exploits is Avery's cousin, Jennifer Stewart (Lucy Marlow), who can only stand by, mortified.

Dec 05, 2008Queen Bee, starring Joan Crawford from 1955 is tailor made for the actress. Joan Craford plays Eva whom has a loveless marriage and family members loathing her from her cold as ice persona. She will do whatever it takes to be the bell of the ball. If you are a fan of Joan Crawford's you will really enjoy this classic that seems to have all the making's of a true classic Crawford drama.Mason W Super Reviewer
