The Eccentricities of a Nightingale

Dir. Glenn Jordan·1976·2h 0m

The tale of a lonely Southern woman's longing for her handsome next-door neighbor. At once tragic and romantic, the story is a reworking of the Williams play "Summer and Smoke," which uses the same characters and setting but in dramatically different ways.
