Airing on TCM on September 25th, 2013


For those who are looking for it.

I'm watching it! I wish I'd taped it to catch some of the quotations.

I recorded then watched this movie today and feel this a wonderful movie. The same thing happened to me with my husband and I really related. It's such a disturbing feeling having a husband walk out with no explanation or hear from him again then finding out so much more that you didn't know about him. The part that got me was thinking he might return and then finally breaking down. I love the relationship between Trish and Melvyn.

As a lifelong single, I could relate only through my younger sister's divorce, which was a horror next to this, with a multi-straying scoundrel of a husband.

So, it was interesting seeing a quiet walkout without seeing the fights they might have had. Trish Van Devere really did a great job. In a number of her movies, she seemed rather icy and very controlled, but, in this, she just seemed like a regular lady.

The relationship WAS wonderful! The two also worked together with her then-husband George C. Scott in "The Changeling".

I definitely would watch it again.
