Moral of the story...


Don't assume your wife isn't as silly as a schoolgirl!

And when she is jealous of your young attractive student DO NOT say "Be your age!" before chasing after said young attractive student. And when she goes missing, lie to the police then change your story. And when her father confronts you tell him that his daughter's presence "was a new excitement in your daily life" and/or "was as though I had gone back to my own age of innocence, having forgotten everything I've learned from in between" and/or "there was a state of love between us". Nor when the police release you stop by said young attractive student's house first before seeing your poor jealous worried wife at home! You're not helping!!!






In my case, nickel, if you are dead, someone smoking a cigarette, was his mother.

Amen will bells on, but first don't call nubile young schoolgirl out to meet you in the middle of the night in a lonely spot.

This was a complex charector study about a man who had no ill will but was acting on I believe subconscious motivations. Tierney's response at first seemed a little heavy but as you observe Leo Genn reactions after the incident in the living room you realize she sensed something was amiss ( or his motivations misguided).

I don't want to give any of the story away but I actually thought he called up the young girl to meet her because he wanted to warn her about having an insanely jealous wife. The movie is not predictable but very good actually.

The American version was cut. The scene where Pamela Brown hugs the girl & then is told to move out.
