She's Nineteen.
She Makes Her Husband Keep Away -- She Won't Let The Stranger Go.
Times are tough for cotton-miller Archie (Karl Malden) but at least he has
his child-bride (Carroll Baker), who'll soon be his wife in title and truth.
The one-year agreement keeping them under the same roof - yet never in the
same bed - is about to end. But a game with a sly business rival (Eli
Wallach) is about to begin.
In Baby Doll, as in A Streetcar Named Desire, director Elia Kazan and writer
Tennessee Williams broke new ground in depicting sexual situations - earning
condemnation by the then-powerful Legion of Decency. They also earned
laurels too: four Academy Award nominations, Golden Globe Awards for Baker
and Kazan and a British Academy Award for Wallach. Watch this funny, steamy
classic that, as Leonard Maltin's Movie Guide proclaims, "still sizzles."
