An Academy Award nominee for Best Cinematography and Best Costume Design, QUEEN BEE (1955) is the story of a manipulative socialite in Georgia who tries to control the lives of those around her to disastrous effect. In the tradition of a Southern Gothic melodrama by Tennessee Williams, this movie provides a showcase for Crawford's most aggressive, scheming seductress since her role in The Women.

Jennifer Stewart (Lucy Marlow) travels from the Midwest to the South, to stay at the home of her cousin Eva Phillips (Joan Crawford), who has been her benefactress. She finds the inhabitants of the Phillips home bitter. Eva’s husband Avery (Barry Sullivan) is a beaten-down alcoholic, scarred by a mysterious car accident. Jud Prentiss (John Ireland) is Eva’s former lover and now manages the family mill. Avery’s sister Carol (Betsy Palmer) is in love with Jud but doesn’t know about his past with Eva, nor the fact that she keeps attempting to seduce him. Over this brooding household rules Eva... the manipulative, possessive, passive-aggressive queen bee.
