“This cinema adaptation of John O’Hara’s From the Terrace stars Paul Newman as Alfred Eaton, an unhappily married financial adviser, while his real-life wife Joanne Woodward portrays Mary St. John, his promiscuous screen spouse. “Mary’s libertine behavior is a by-product of her husband’s inability to express love and affection, a trait he has inherited from his cold-blooded father. Mark Robson directs and Myrna Loy heads up a large supporting cast as Newman’s alcoholic mother.” (Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide)
This film will be screened on DVD.
