Could Vittorio de Sica possibly have directed it? De Sica, who made The Bicycle Thief? Even a director who had made no movies would have a hard time making one as bad as this. Go to Full Review Variety Staff Variety 02/23/2012

08/23/2014 Classic- don't know why it got bad reviews. Faye Dunaway at her best . Very enjoyable. See more 08/16/2014 Overheated dramatics in absolutely breathtaking locations. Faye is ravishing and clothed in the height of 60's fashion. See more 03/13/2012 Dunaway at her loveliest. See more Read all reviews
