Fay Bainter was willing to play unsympathetic characters. She was perhaps type cast but it got her another Oscar nomination for The Children's Hour. Good episode, directed by future Oscar winner Frank Schaffner, based on a story by Georges Simenon.
in the comercials when Betty Furness says holly berry red, I kept hearing Halle Berry red. $29.95 for a portable radio. On of the few things that got cheaper in subsequent years.

Good episode. “ doing the right thing for the wrong reasons”, good quote. The old biddy had her own nasty agenda.

29:19- "For tops in thrills, it's 'DANGER', on the CBS TELEVISION NETWORK."

Bette Davis in What Ever Happened to Baby Jane comes to mind.

Nice atmosphere, but about half way through it is pretty clear what the old biddy is up to.

Geez, what a shrew! All it takes is one person to ruin everything. It’s great when they get their comeuppance.
