Legend of Lizzie Borden (1975)

"The Legend of Lizzie Borden" is a 1975 true-crime drama that dramatizes the infamous 1892 axe murders and the trial that followed, casting a cool, clinical eye on the woman at the center of the scandal. Elizabeth Montgomery, stepping far outside her "Bewitched" persona, takes on the title role and delivers a performance that trades sitcom charm for something colder and more unsettling. The site carries 1 scene from the film, a brief but notable glimpse that shows a different, bolder side of Montgomery's screen work.
