Secure a complimentary ticket (online or membership services office) for this free movie; limited seating. Two elderly sisters, Libby Strong (Bette Davis) and Sarah Webber (Lillian Gish), travel to their summer house in Maine. The pair couldn't be less similar: Libby is blind, cynical and mean-spirited; Sarah is sunny, optimistic and healthy. Yet their shared memories and hardships –especially the deaths of their husbands – helps bind the two together.
