Stylish comedy-drama. Binnie Barnes is wonderful fun as the sticky fingered mother.

A mixed bag, should have been much better considering the presence of Liv Ullmann. Edward Albert Jr is poorly cast, it's beyond his acting range and he comes across as a jerk. The supporting cast is excellent though and lift the movie up considerable. It's an old fashioned story and the writing is not up to par.
