Summer and Smoke

From the towering genius of Tennessee Williams comes a story of passions lost and found. Academy Award winner Geraldine Page stars as the spinster Alma. Laurence Harvey is Doctor John Buchanan, the handsome young man Alma has loved since childhood. But when a sultry vamp appears (Rita Moreno), the doctor falls hard, descending into a seamy nightlife and leaving Alma's dreams behind like forgotten embers. Set against a steamy southern backdrop and the sweeping grandeur of Elmer Bernstein's Oscar-nominated score, Summer and Smoke crackles with first-rate performances and the stirring power of Tennessee William's words.
