Brilliant movie from Anatole Litvak & cinematographer Leo Tovar. Incredible visual metaphor in Tovar's lensing. Outstanding performance by Olivia de Havilland. Leo Genn as Dr. Kik is calmly fascinating. Long a top ten fave of mine. A great classic to start the New Year. #thesnakepit #tcmparty #noir

#TheSnakePit (1948, Anatole Litvak) is one of my favorite Olivia de Havilland films and performances. While Olivia didn't win the Oscar for this film (her two Oscar wins came from To Each His Own and The Heiress), her performance is nonetheless remarkable. She makes you believe every moment.

Lmao! I am cackling! She is not! She is getting a little electro shock therapy!

#OliviadeHavilland in #TheSnakePit!

She’s my absolute favorite actress of all time, and this is a top favorite of her filmography!

She was a Class Act who won TWO Best Actress OSCARS but should have won a THIRD (just like INGRID BERGMAN) for #HushHushSweetCharlotte and possibly a FOURTH (just like KATHARINE HEPBURN) for #TheSnakePit. But I guess TWO is enough. lolz

Which one of these episodes are you most excited to listen to? 🤩 #PodernFamily #PodNation #ItsAWonderful1 #OliviaDeHavilland #TheHeiress #NotAsAStranger #TheSnakePit #MyCousinRachel #OldMovies #OldHollywood

Episode 384 - Sep 19

THE SNAKE PIT (1948) dir. #AnatoleLitvak

One of the most impactful of a trend of bold, psychological movies of the era focusing on mental illness.

Shrouded in mystery and darkly realistic horror, it's a powerful story of asylum patients
