Product Description:
A lower class mother selflessly sends her daughter to her upper crust father and his wife so she can have a better life. Studio: Tcfhe/mgm Release Date: 03/08/2005 Starring: Barbara Stanwyck Anne Shirley Run time: 104 minutes Rating: Nr
Amazon.com essential video:
Barbara Stanwyck gave one of her inimitable and wonderfully enigmatic performances as a mill worker who marries her way into high society and soon experiences layers of frustration. Channeling her restlessness, she soon makes a positive though highly self-sacrificial decision on her daughter's behalf, and endures the agony of being replaced in her husband's life by an old, blue-blooded flame. King Vidor (The Crowd) directs with a fascinating sense of duality about Stanwyck's character: is her lower-caste vulgarity something to sneer at or something to applaud for the contrast she presents to the mannered upper classes? Stanwyck plays the riddle brilliantly, right down to the final moment of her character's weird self-satisfaction at being ostracized from her daughter's honeyed life. --Tom Keogh

this is a good movie. What Stella went through for her daughter showed true love.

Make no mistake: this is a soap opera, plain and simple. Normally, that turns me off but I didn't mind here because Barbara Stanwyck is just superb to watch.

This is a powerful story, especially so, I would presume, if you are the mother of a teenage girl. Here, Anne Shirley plays Stanwyck's daughter. What "Stella" (Stanwyck) does ... Read More

It is quite telling that Frank Borzage and King Vidor, two film pioneers who both began in the silent art form of film, were quite successful in the transition to sound. And perhaps because of their origins, brought a sensitivity to sentimental dramas better than anyone else in Hollywood. In other hands, Stella Dallas might have been a maudlin soaper, but with Vidor at the helm, and Barbara Stanwyck in front of Rudolph Mate's camera lens, Stella Dallas is a memorable drama of a mother's love for her ...

The mom (Barbara Stanwyck) is a tacky, tastless woman, but loves her little daughter so very much that she makes what I consider to be the ultimate sacrafice. I won't ruin the end for you by saying what she does, but it is one of my favorite old movies.
Don't bother with the re-make, which I believe was done in the 90's sometime. It's a terrible dissapointment.

The movie itself is the best,,,Barbara is awesome but the quality of the movie is not the best..Otherwise I love it.
