These Three

It seems like I'm the only one who liked The Children's Hour with Audrey Hepburn.  Every critic says watch These Three instead.  The only real difference is that The Children's Hour still kept the lesbianism that was in Lillian Hellman's play.  However, since the script of These Three is written by Lillian Hellman it doesn't matter. The plot is about two women who run a boarding school.  The brat Bonita Granville creates horrible vicious rumors about them that bring down their business and their names.  Bonita was nominated for this and rightfully.  I wonder why she didn't become a huge star in her adult years as well.  It may have a different subject matter but it is still a powerful piece about gossip.
