Academy Award Winner Olivia De Havilland Lights Up the Screen!

Academy Award winner Olivia De Havilland and Montgomery Clift light up the screen in this spellbinding, landmark drama. De Havilland is Catherine Sloper, an aristocratic young woman living under the scrutiny of her malevolent father. When a handsome but penniless suitor proposes, her father believes he could only be after her vast estate and threatens disinheritance. Can she be rich in both love and money? Based on the stage version of Henry James' renowned novel Washington Square, this "four star" (Leonard Maltin) winner of four Academy Awards features an all-new digitally remastered picture. A masterpiece of love, deception and betrayal, The Heiress remains a shining example of a true cinematic achievement!
