Watchable mess. Mostly because it is of an inbetween sort of era (America post Elvis and pre-Beatlemania). Probably seemed daring on stage, but gets kinda cringe so often, it is hard to see why Mitchum would submit to the role of an slouching iceberg, quipping and cracking lines that make you wonder why anyone would want this fella at the center of a movie. Shirley Maclaine, on the other hand, it magnetic from the jump. Even though the script gives her and us little reason accept that she would let the cinder block that is Mitchum's character into her life. The score is a big plus, as it the on location cinematography. Really, if you just watch the opening credits sequence and the too short scene of McLean dancing by herself just past the hour mark, you are getting most of what makes the movie worth clicking towards.

It's just a whole lot of nothing. It

It's just a whole lot of nothing. It feels like nothing happens. These two meet at a party by chance, he calls her, they go on a date, and stuff just happens. It's a melodrama romance that is very serious, cynical, and well directed. The direction by Wise is great here and the best thing about it. He keeps it humming along the entire way even when they story just never goes anywhere. There is some really nice shots here that look straight out of a Noir and honestly this feels like it lots of times. This also gives off The Apartment kind of vibes the entire way too. which no doubt had a influence on this. So it's like mixing the two together in a way. Problem is...it's just so meandering, talkative, melodramatic, and just mediocre all around. I really can't point to anything broken as everyone is trying and doing well but nothing is coming together to form any kind of narrative and the vibes this gives off is just serious and boring. The music my god is ripped straight out of a Noir it feels like and so downbeat. There is plenty of complex character interaction and growth here. But it just feels like it just happens with no clear structure or flow or underlying message. It feels like two people who are feeling sorry for themselves at times being overly dramatic without much clear reasons that's pretty to look at most of the time. I just sat there just waiting for it to do something, make me feel something besides depressed and bored, or go somewhere with it's characters it builds and it just doesn't. The two leads have chemitry but the dialouge can be so nonstop, meandering, and gonig in circles at times it weighs them down a lot. Skip This. It's not terrible at tall but just goes nowhere. Watch The Apartment instead.
