New 4K Restoration

 

Academy Award© winning 

actor/director Lee Grant's directorial debut short was this acclaimed adaptation of August Strindberg's "The Stronger."

​

Two rival actresses meet in a gorgeous 1800’s hotel. One does all the talking, but its the silence that reveals a shared past and which woman really is “The Stronger.”

 

Starring Susan Strasberg and Dolores Dorn, Grant transformed the premises of the AFI into a lush 19th century society hotel with cinematography by Andrew Davies and editing by Hal Ashby. ​
