What a weird movie!, 2 September 2000
Author: nickandrew from PA

One of Davis's most unusual performances as a bored doctor's wife who carries on an affair with millionaire Brian and eventually gets involved with a murder. Story is so full of oddities, that Davis alone cannot even pull this one over. This is where the immortal line "what a dump!" is said.
