Son is a bearded off-beatnik novelist who has brought home to London a monolingual Greek gamine first encountered in a Sardinian hay stack. Like son, like father. During Mama's absence, Papa (Cyril Ritchard) has had his own affair with a divorcee. "The moment my back is turned," says Mama reproachfully.
