It's got Elizabeth Taylor at her luminous best! It's got Katherine Hepburn being all hysterical!  Montgomery Clift referees, while providing cutting-edge mental health treatment (aka lobotomy) from the worst mental hospital in the world. Add in the  New Orleans lush sweatiness, and the secret of what exactly happened to Katherine's son Sebastian last summer (this is one of those films where actors say the title A LOT), and you have this ripe but delicious slice of Southern gothic.

This one is a winner all year round.
