Director: Stuart Rosenberg
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Despite the cast, a dire romantic comedy, with Lemmon as a New York stockbroker grasping at extra-marital bliss in the shape of a married Frenchwoman. It looks as though Rosenberg had taken a crash course in Lelouch chic before making it.Author: TM
