A story not only about justice

Elvira Backus' family goes to see lawyer Willie Croft (Scott Glenn) because the town's richest family claims her land. Elvira finds an unlikely ally in the dead patriarch's sister Hannah Loftin (Bette Davis) that is challenged by the Holt clan. As for Willie, the involvement in the case intensifies when he falls for Hannah's niece Whitsey (Jamie Lee Curtis).

It's one of those typical made for TV movies where there is an old woman that has problems in keeping her propriety safe from the bloodsucking families. Bette Davis was very good as usual, and Scott Glenn and Jamie Lee Curtis made a nice couple, and honestly I think that if there was more of the relationship the film would have been better. Still, as it is, it's good but nothing exceptional.
