Repressed desires, sultry women, sweltering weather and a handsome new stranger in town...this is playwright Tennessee Williams at his very best. Depression-era Dodson, Mississippi, is particularly devastated with the arrival of Owen Legate (Robert Redford), a railroad official with a pocketful of pink slips for the rail yard employees. Natalie Wood is captivating as Alva Starr, the coquettish town flirt with plenty of big plans but nowhere to go...until Legate appears on her doorstep. Their ensuing affair enrages Alva's distant, uncaring mother (Kate Reid)—and ignites a town's revenge. Masterfully directed by Sydney Pollack (The Way We Were, Out of Africa, The Firm) and co-written for the screen by Francis Ford Coppola (The Godfather trilogy), This Property Is Condemned sizzles with unbridled passion and fiery emotion.

Screw the critics! This movie has been special to me since I was a kid. I would watch this movie with my sister and it gets richer in appeal as I've matured. I understand and empathize with the characters. For the year it was done it is an added dimension to this story. Tennessee Williams is one of my favorite writers. I am sooo happy to finally find this film on a digital format after searching for years.

I couldn't even say how many times I watched this movie growing up. Natalie and Redford are electric together! And the little girl from " To kill a mockingbird " was great as Natalie's sister. Even Robert Blake is in it!

This is a movie I have enjoyed since I was a young girl and even when I watch it today I enjoy it just as much as when I was young. I recommend it highly as it has a great story with two great and beloved actors. As the old adage says "It is an oldie but a goodie."
