Summary: 3 Stars
A Georgia housewife suffering from multiple personalities seeks psychiatric care in this film based on a true story. Joanne Woodward, in her tour-de-force Oscar performance, portrays the troubled young woman, whose personalities are identified as "Eve White" - an insecure and troubled woman, "Eve Black" - her alter ego - a loose, party girl and finally "Jane," a stable and headstrong woman who is the dominant personality.
Woodward's acting is definitely the high point of the film. Despite the filmmaker's attempts at portraying a psychological disorder in an understanding light, there are several problems. First of all, the widescreen Cinemascope format was probably not the way to go with such an intimate subject matter. This is a film that begs for close-ups and confined scenes - the wide screen format makes that hard to do. The cinematography and set design also doesn't help and the film looks rather like a cheap tv documentary or an episode of "Dragnet." Another problem is the use of humorous passages and dialog that result in the film losing its tone. Although a scene with David Wayne (as Woodward's country bumpkin husband) and "Eve Black" comes across as pretty funny, it hurts the film on the whole and leaves the audience confused about the films true intentions. Finally, the incident and root of Eve's psychosis is never fully explained in enough detail and leaves the viewer with more questions than answers.
Look for Nancy Kulp ("Miss Jane Hathaway" on "Beverly Hillbillies") in a brief scene near the end as Woodward's mother.
The dvd transfer is very good, presented in the original wide screen format. The print looks clean with few noticeable scratches or debris. Extras include a commentary by film historian Aubrey Soloman, a Movietone newsreel with highlights from the Academy Awards and Joanne Woodward receiving her Oscar and the trailer.
Movie Review: Blackouts are her friend.
Summary: 3 Stars
The Three Faces of Eve starring Joanne Woodward has to be her best role to date. Woodward is captivating as Eve who suffers from multiple personalities. The ending is kind of corny and over-hyped so that is why I am not giving this film a perfect rating. Just watch it for Joanne's memorable performance.Movie Review: Kiss your money goodby!

After wasting a month trying to get this company to replace a defective DVD, I gave up and reordered from Amazon in stock. They ship fast the firdt time, but after that they claim your address is not valid and USPS will no longer accept their mail to my address. How's that for BS!
