Susan Hayward won the Best Actress Oscar (very well deserved, in my opinion) for her role as convicted murderess Barbara Graham. Based on a true story, there is a great deal of controversy about how "factual" the movie really is. Still, the final thirty minutes (an execution scene, sorry if that is a spoiler) will have your stomach in knots. I have seen this movie several times and every time I find it very disturbing--and thought provoking. Add it to your netflix queue if you haven't seen it.
