From Chris: Fascinating cautionary tale from the 60s starring Suzanne Pleshette. Beautifully lensed B&W cinematography from MGM looks fantastic in what must be a new transfer, put out exclusively by ViaVision in Australia. Probably the best-looking transfer I've caught from them of these older catalog titles.
I'll be honest I took this one since it featured Suzanne Pleshette, one of the only theatrical films she had more than a supporting role. It's a strange tale for the 1960s as the protagonist is an insatiable slut, whose affairs both before and after marriage wreck the lives of her loved ones. The movie actually uses that dialogue, using stark language for this period of Hollywood.
The searing drama got an Oscar nom for costume design. Dated for today's audiences and a movie I would have never seen if not for this review, but I got a lot out of it.
