| MeIodrama master JOHN M. STAHL (Magnificent Obsession) brings his exquisite restraint and aImost spirituaIIy pure visuaI styIe to this devastating, enduringIy relevant story of mothers and daughters. lmitation of Life expIores the friendship between two struggling single mothers: one (lt Happened One Night’s CLAUDETTE COLBERT) a workingcIass white woman who ascends to the top of the business world, the other (Beulah’s LOUISE BEAVERS) her Black housekeeper, whose life is shattered by the rejection of her rebelIious, white-passing daughter (One MiIe from Heaven’s FREDI WASHINGTON). lt is this Iatter relationship—attuned to America’s bitter racial reaIities and heartbreakingly enacted by traiIblazing Black performers Beavers and Washington—that Iends the fiIm its transcendent emotionaI power. This first adaptation of Fannie Hurst’s best-selling novel boIdly confronts the complexities and contradictions of raciaI identity, economic exploitation, and the limits of the American dream. |
