Man bashing without a cause
14 September 2021
The only male character who is not guilty of womanizing is Stephen Boyd but he has to be an alcoholic. Hope Lange doesn't remember if she had sex with him the night before but of course there's no moral question there. The rest of the women sans Martha Hyer are all on the prowl but it's the men who are at fault. No man could have written a reverse view book of what the career man had to go through with these man trapping women and not get persecuted. P,S, Look at Mary Agnes' fiance during the bridal shower. He looks sick to death of the dog and pony show that should not be taking place at work.

Nice cinematography, color and how modern New York looked in the 50's, otherwise a one sided piece of crap.

P. S. I highly recommend that you Don't watch the commentary by Sylvia Stoddard and Rona Jaffe. Stoddard hogs the air time and is wrong so many times regarding facts about this and other movies and the stars in it. She's a man bashing annoyance that just drones on and on constantly contradicting herself.
