Justification, however, is not tantamount to satisfaction. The notion behind Harper precludes the possibility of a well-knit mystery, and it is only at the very end that this becomes evident. Thus anyone who tries to figure the mystery out feels cheated. If you don't try you will be spared what is really the one failing of a fine movie...
...order to propel his close-knit cast through a long, fragmentized narrative, Director Lumet has to bob around a good deal, ticker-taping a chatty alumnae newsletter across the screen like subtitles in a foreign movie, sometimes cutting from character to character as though he were taking an opinion poll.

Mimi and Camille Henderson, Skitch's miniature poodles, sported twin $150 red mole coats that were belted at the waist, and Buffee Gore...
Backstage at the burlesque (if this show could be called burlesque) is much the same as the stage door view of any other production. The same old naked lightbulb dinginess, the same sense of close-knit but often tempestuous community, the same jaded vitality. The only difference here was the injection of a vaguely nudist camp atmosphere...
