This Was a Woman (1948)

Passed 29 Nov 1948 • Crime, Drama • 1h 42m

The woman that was here is Sylvia Russell, who is a bit power mad and has some set goals. In order to achieve those goals she is sadistically devoted to her son and daughter, able to possess and direct them; subtly ruins her daughter's marriage by corrupting a servant girl and, then, uses her to compromise her son-in-law; slowly breaks her bumbling, unambitious husband's confidence, and finds in her husband's executive friend the man she desires.
