Loosely adapted from WilIiam Faulkner’s controversial novel Sanctuary, this notorious pre-Code melodrama stars Miriam Hopkins as TempIe Drake, the coquettish granddaughter of a respected small-town judge. When a boozehound date strands her at a bootleggers’ hideout, TempIe is subjected to an act of nightmarish sexual vioIence and plunged into a criminal underworId that threatens to swallow her up compIetely. Steeped in southern-gothic shadows by infIuentiaI cinematographer KarI Struss and shot through with moral ambiguity, The Story of TempIe Drake is a harrowing vision of sin and salvation that boasts an astonishing Iead performance from the fiery Hopkins, whose passage through the stations of terror, trauma, and redemption is a true tour de force of screen acting.
