Dolores Claiborne is a 1995 American psychological thriller drama film directed by Taylor Hackford and starring Kathy Bates and Jennifer Jason Leigh, with David Strathairn, John C. Reilly, Eric Bogosian, and Christopher Plummer in supporting roles. The screenplay by Tony Gilroy is based on the 1992 novel by Stephen King. The plot focuses on the strained relationship between a mother and her daughter, largely told through flashbacks. The daughter arrives to her remote hometown on a Maine island, where her mother has been accused of murdering the elderly woman for whom she had long been a caregiver and companion.

Dolores Claiborne was the second major King film adaptation to star Bates in a leading role after Misery (1990) five years earlier. The film was shot in Nova Scotia in 1994. It was released by Columbia Pictures on March 24, 1995 and was a sleeper hit, grossing $46.4 million worldwide on a $13 million budget and little promotion. The film was well received by critics, with the performances of Bates and Leigh being especially praised. Bates stated in a retrospective interview that her performance as the titular Dolores was her favorite performance she had ever given. In 2014, Time named the film among the top 10 greatest Stephen King film adaptations.
