À propos de ce produit

Product Information

In a major change of genres, Lindsay Anderson (IF. . ., O LUCKY MAN!) directs two legendary American actors in this charming, simple story of two elderly women looking back on their lives, and still planning for the future, as they wait to see the migrating whales pass their summer house on the coast of Maine. Lillian Gish, the star of WAY DOWN EAST in 1920, plays Sarah Webber, a slightly frail but still active woman who now cares for her blind sister, Libby, played by Bette Davis. Famous for her acerbic tongue, Davis does not disappoint as the domineering older sister.The film opens with a black and white montage of Libby (Margaret Ladd) and Sarah (Mary Steenburgen) running to see the whales when they were young girls. Later Anderson uses photographs of the sisters in their youth using actual photos of Davis and Gish themselves. These have a striking familiarity, Davis's black hair and those penetrating eyes and Gish's beautiful smile, give instant recognition to how time has passed for these two women.THE WHALES OF AUGUST is like a Checkov play, complete with an exiled Russian nobleman, about faded memories and family loyalties. Vincent Price brings a quiet dignity to the role of Mr. Maranov, who asks if the sisters will take him into their home as a boarder. Ann Southern as Tisha Doughty, a neighbor who has know the sisters all their lives, tries to mediate between the always-quarreling sisters. But this film clearly belongs to its leads. Bette Davis and Lillian Gish play off each other perfectly, turning a rough stone of a story into a polished gem.

  • Like a Family Reunion

    I am a Bette Davis fan. How great it is to see all of these old favorite stars--Bette, Lillian Gish, Ann Sothern, and Vincent Price--in probably their last film! In fact, the DVD cover says that this is Ann Sothern's and Lillian Gish's last film. Bette Davis was 79 when she made it; she had suffered a stroke before its filming. The movie belongs to these two beloved, aged stars Bette Davis (Libby) and Lillian Gish (Sarah). They are widowed sisters living in a family cottage on the seacoast of Maine in August. They had lived there as children and have fond memories of waiting for the whales to appear from the coastline. Libby is practically blind now, and Sarah does most of the caring for both of them. We see them in their daily routine, which is extremely hard at this age just to ...

  • Whales of August - good film

    It is a film that would most likley not see the inside of a movie house. The story has very few characters, storyline is of 2 sisters who are in their twilight years and coming to some relizations about their lifes. One sister cares for the other (who is blind, and is quite crusty on the outside) but a good heart. The other sister relizes that with her sister's blindness and other health problems, must come to the difficult decision of making changes in the relationship. The supporting cast are lively with rich past histories and add to the story in all the right places. This is a movie of life,family,friends, ups and downs, but in the end it is really about the love between 2 sisters who each summer from childhood would look for the whales in august who would float by their beachside ...

  • Very nicely done.

    Seeing these aged stars in a quality play/movie is a great buy and a chance to see them once more.
