DESCRIPTION:
Widow Karen Stone is wealthy and beautiful. Her acting successes are a memory. She lives alone in a luxury apartment overlooking the Roman steps where romantic liaisons take place. And she waits. Academy Award winners* Vivien Leigh and Warren Beatty are lady and lover in this tender adaptation of a Tennessee Williams novella directed by Broadway veteran Jose Quintero. Leigh won her second Oscar for Williams' A Streetcar Named Desire; this reteaming of author and actress creates a similar spell -- at once romantic, sinister and nearly explosive. Adding spice to the combustion of the two leads are Best Supporting Actress Oscar nominee Lotte Lenya as a contessa who "arranges" romances in which she has a financial stake and Coral Browne as Karen's savvy best friend.
