...routine marital triangle, albeit one clothed in some impressive pastoral photography. Part of the picture's lack of dramatic impact undoubtedly stems from the routine character of the acting. Only one of the principals, Danielle Darrieux, as Lady Chatterley, brings some life into the proceedings. Her transition from a cool, self-possessed society woman to the wife of a gamekeeper is, on the whole, credible. Leo Genn, in the part of Sir Clifford, gives a singularly plodding performance and his French always sounds self-conscious and forced. As the gamekeeper, Erno Crisa has the suitable male-animal look about...

When the interviewer extends his hand, shrink away, then walk around his arm and whisper furtively into his ear, "Germs you know, they're all over the place...
...Tulsa Tribune's Nolen Bulloch is a canny, cool-headed reporter whose skill at unearthing stories of bootlegging, gambling and political corruption has earned him the title of "The Little Scorpion" among Oklahoma hoodlums. Last week Reporter Bulloch was indicted by a federal grand jury in Tulsa on the very charge that has jailed more than a dozen mobsters he has exposed in the Tribune. The charge: conspiracy to import liquor into bone-dry Oklahoma...
