NOTES |
Natalie Wood
is much better than one might expect portraying an alcoholic
housewife who is suicidal and in and out of mental
hospital. She projects a vulnerability which allows us to
sympathise with her character. Overall the film is bleak and not
greatly entertaining but thorough and elucidating about her
condition. On this basis I would recommend the film though it
may be dated. |

From the
novel by Joyce Rebeta-Burditt. |
