Libby (Davis) and Sarah (Gish) are widowed siblings who have vacationed for half a century at a seaside cottage in Maine. Now intheir eighties, the sisters have unexpectedly arrived at an impasse: While Sarah embraces change and the possibility of romance with a courtly Russian suitor (Vincent Price), the stubbornly bitter Libby rages at the inevitability of death. As the summer months wane, can Libby and Sarah rediscover the powerful bonds of memory, family and love? (texte officiel du distributeur)

anglais A beautiful film about old age, bringing together acting legends Bette Davis, Lillian Gish and Vincent Price, with Bette having perhaps the least simple and least interesting role, yet being the catalyst for the action. It’s a slow-paced film, but it needs that to make it work. I'd quite like to look and move like them at 80. ()
