Despite being short in length (approx. 25 min.), "Stranded," originally featured as an episode of the old television show "Telephone Time," offers a stellar, solid Bette Davis performance which should not be missed by any die-hard fan. The story consists of a teacher (Davis) and a small classroom of students who get caught in a blizzard and are stranded in the schoolhouse. Although quite corny, "Stranded" does manage to conjure up some emotions towards the end. For the die-hards only.

at first, i was absolutely furious when it stopped after less than half an hour! I was surprised it wasn't stated in cinemania's biography of miss Davis,now i know why. On the other hand, it's a small piece of work of hers that i wouldn't have ever seen if it hadn't been released on video so i suppose it's good. I would only recommend it to miss Davis fan base though, it's the only people this movie can interest.

I have a video library of Bette Davis' work that most fans would die for. This was one piece that escaped me. I am so glad I bought it. It is a very solid work and one that I'm sure a very picky Bette was proud of.

My video library is lacking one of Bette's movies, Storm Center. If anyone knows how I can get my hands on it, include that info in your review.

Yes, I arrived at this space looking for STORM CENTER. I remember seeing it when I was a kid, somehow sensing that the film had budget and rhetoric problems, but turning into an anti-HUAC 12-yr-old as a result of its polemic.
