nick s Quite well produced with excellent acting. But the story was a humdrum romance with quite a predictable conclusion. I liked it scene by scene but became quite bored with the story. If you're a romance fan you'll probably be adequately satisfied. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 08/18/24 Full Review John W I cannot believe that this film somehow got under the radar. Wake up and watch it on youtube! Screenplay: Abe Polonsky (e.g. "spit on your pencil and write me some numbers.") Filming and direction outstanding. Cast: top draw actors, no over-acting, dead-pan comedy at its best, even from Haywood. Money, romance, betrayal, double-dealing (opportunism), women in capitalism at its rawest. Early tongue-in-cheek expose of what was in store from Betty Friedan's "you've come a long way, baby" feminism and the me-too movement, and a killer male response to it---Get a load of George Saunders telling it like it is,in Abe Polonsky brilliance. The fact that there is not one review on record at RT may indicate that Polonsky was already on the blacklist (HUAC and the Jewish ADL) when the film came out. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 06/12/19 Full Review Audience Member Don't read below if you don't want spoilers. The energy, the pulse, the lovers being torn apart, and then, at the very end, coming together for the final. Loved it, loved it, loved it. I also thought the three main characters were perfectly cast. And I also loved the music. There is one funny detail about the music. There are a couple of times when we see these classic overhead shots, from the top of a building looking down on the streets of busy Manhattan, with the pedestrians and cars appearing small, and the music is really intense to convey big city hustle and bustle, but, if you look closely, the cars are moving quite slowly due to the traffic! more reviews at: alessandrareflections.wordpress.com Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member suffers from gr8 miscasting Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Ambition, thy name is Harriet (Susan Hayward) Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Read all reviews
