    Storyline

    • Trivia
      Director Robert Gist had a small acting role in the 1958 film adaptation of Norman Mailer's novel, Alastomat ja kuolleet (1958). "An American Dream" and Mailer's own adaptation of Tough Guys Don't Dance (1987) have been the only other Mailer novels filmed to date, though a number of other films have been based on Mailer's nonfiction books.

    Cheap imitation of (1958) A CAT ON A HOT TIN ROOF
    Eleanor Parker is an embarrassment to acting. Her ugly and obnoxious portrayal of rich and spoiled socialite Deborah Kelly Rojack who goads her war hero husband Stephen Richard Rojack (Stuart Whitman) into a bedroom tussle that lands them both overhanging their penthouse balcony until she falls to her annoying death was pitiful.

    Talk about overacting and a crummy screenplay that includes a jilted lover and dance hall singer to the mob, a girl named Cherry McMahon (Janet Leigh) and the murdered daughter's wealthy father Barney Kelly (Lloyd Nolan) all making our war hero turned TV broadcaster Stephen Richard Rojack a target for everyone including the mob.

    The film tries in vain to build suspense with a penetrating music score and continued non-stop hurried dialogue between Stuart Whitman and EVERYONE and ANYONE else who shares screen time with him. Well it just does not work.

    A most forgettable film worthy of a 3 out of 10 rating and nothing more.
