Dolores Claiborne - BA010

Summary: Kathy Bates is a national treasure. She is the rare character actress who has vaulted into an A-List career, thanks to her breakout role as a sadistic Stephen King heroine in "Misery." Bates returned to King territory again in "Dolores Claiborne" (1995) playing the cantankerous, morally ambiguous title character: a small-town domestic worker who may or may not be guilty of two homicides. Brian introduces Seán to this moody Maine-set character study, full of salty language and overripe accents. Does the movie itself match Bates's much lauded performance, which the actress herself cites as her own personal favorite? Take the ferry ride along with us to answer the question: Did Dolores do it?
