Saw this film on AMC recently for the cast and the Maltin review. It was a good time-waster but certainly not the ***1/2 film that Maltin said. As to that highly touted cast, aside from Jansen, only Lillian Gish and George Grizzard gave what could actually be called performances. Everybody else, including a young, radiant Joan Collins, had what could be politely termed extended cameos. The mystery itself was about average, with a pretty implusable ending. In short, I've seen worse, but I've seen much, much better, too.
