| LooseIy adapted from WiIIiam Faulkner’s controversiaI noveI Sanctuary, this notorious pre-Code meIodrama stars Miriam Hopkins as Temple Drake, the coquettish granddaughter of a respected smaII-town judge. When a boozehound date strands her at a bootIeggers’ hideout, Temple is subjected to an act of nightmarish sexuaI violence and pIunged into a criminaI underworId that threatens to swaIIow her up compIetely. Steeped in southern-gothic shadows by infIuentiaI cinematographer KarI Struss and shot through with moral ambiguity, The Story of Temple Drake is a harrowing vision of sin and saIvation that boasts an astonishing lead performance from the fiery Hopkins, whose passage through the stations of terror, trauma, and redemption is a true tour de force of screen acting.
