Bette Davis earned an Oscar nod for her portrayal of a narcissistic socialite who gets her comeuppance in this bittersweet tale. To keep her embezzling brother out of jail, Fanny Trellis (Davis) weds wealthy Job Skeffington (Claude Rains) but seeks a divorce when her sibling, angry about Fanny's one-sided union, runs off to war and gets killed.
