Husband Mallory (Alexander Knox) has just fled at signs of the arrival of neighborhood gossip Clara (Dame May Whitty), visiting her disabled writer friend Leah (Susan Peters), meeting her new secretary Sherica (Phyllis Thaxter), in the early John Sturges thriller The Sign Of The Ram, 1948.
The matriarch of an English family uses her disability to cynically manipulate all those around her. She coldly destroys a daughter's relationship with a man she truly loves, and her machinations almost drive the son's fiance to suicide.
A wheelchair-bound woman manipulates her family to a point where they suspect she may be unhinged.
