Starting to watch this movie, which someone uploaded to YouTube, I was mightily impressed with Elinore Parker's acting chops, as she goes full throtle, yet is believable, as a sadistic, masocistic drunk. One more proof that she was one of the best and most versitile actresses of her era. She also looks impressively younger than her forty something age. Unfortunately, she's only in the first 10 minutes of the movie, and after that it's pretty awful.
I can't compete writing-wise with several of the funny, creative, and dead on IMDB reviews of the film, so I'm not going to try.
I'll just note that the Johnny Mandel title song is a classic, beautiful and moving.
