A purple melodrama spawned during an era when such films were wildly popular with female audiences left at home while World War II raged on, John M. Stahl’s Leave Her to Heaven is actually a bit more restrained than its genre siblings like, say, Mildred Pierce or Mr. Skeffington, but it nonetheless focuses on one of the most coldly evil central female characters in movie history, and the film has stood the test of time better than some due to the relative restraint of its acting and a lovely controlled score by one of the greats, Alfred Newman.
