I'd confidently say that 1942's "Mildred Pierce" is (undoubtedly) quite a satisfactory cut above a lot of the pictures being churned out back then (which were specifically aimed at the women in the audience). Containing plenty of well-timed melodrama and lots of finely tuned performances - "Mildred Pierce" (regardless of it now being nearly 80 years old) certainly delivers a considerable-sized punch when it comes to all of its high-strung dramatics. (But, this is only so as long as the viewer is willing to cut this film some well-deserved slack for being an obvious product of its time)
