Libby is blind and embittered, while Sarah is healthy, supportive, and almost annoyingly chipper. Their neighbor Tisha (Ann Sothern) tries to convince Sarah to put Libby in the care of her daughter, but Sarah hasn’t forgotten Libby’s moral support when her own husband died, and she won’t entertain such notions — until she is swept off her feet by an aging roué (Vincent Price).
