This is a great movie even if it is disjointed. Rod Taylor is excellent - an underrated actor I think - the George Clooney of his day perhaps.... and Maggie Smith is so brilliant in this. I am sure she and Rod had an affair - their chemistry is tangible and they both look gorgeous.
I saw a recent interview with Rod Taylor before seeing the film and wondered about the same thing.
"I loved all my leading ladies. But I think the fun of working and loving at the same time...I...ah...getting on well with somebody and doing good, constructive, immensely talented work was Maggie...I think. Maggie was a delight to work with. But then they have all been wonderful, I've been so lucky."
