Plot: Adapted from the 1937 novel by Myron Brinig, THE SISTERS is a historical melodrama that looks at four years in the lives of three Montana sisters during the early 20th century. Helen (Anita Louise) wants only to marry, have children, and live and die in her hometown. Meanwhile, her headstrong sister, Grace (Jane Bryan), marries an older man for money and fortune. However, the third sister, Louise (Bette Davis in a soft, sympathetic role), is the most lovely and intelligent. Engaged to marry the town's most eligible bachelor, Louise instead runs off with Frank Medlin (Errol Flynn), a charming, misguided sportswriter who wants to write the Great American Novel. No sooner does Louise follow him to San Francisco than she learns Frank has a drinking problem and a restless heart and can't seem to pull his life together even though he desperately loves her. When the Great Earthquake hits, Louise's life literally comes tumbling down around her. Director Anatole Litvak's dramatic and powerfully acted film deals with themes of inner strength, the bond between sisters, and unconditional love.
