Its plot seems to have been transplanted, intentionally or not, from two comic movies, Phfffs and Captain's Paradise. Bill Rudd (William Hillier) and Peter Strickland (Jerry Vermilye) share an apartment which Bill uses for purposes of seduction, decorating it with big-game trophies, while Peter pretends he's a philanthropist and has suitable trappings.

...hours packed with pencil work, pep pills and black coffee, Pogostin and Mulligan had built a play that pleased both Olivier and Producer David Susskind. In the process, they lost some of the novel's dark energy; they never adequately explained how a respectable British stockbroker named Charles Strickland (modeled on famed Painter Paul Gauguin) could abandon wife and family for a new career as an artist-or why, after he seduced Blanche Stroeve (Jessica Tandy), wife of his best friend (Hume Cronyn), Blanche later turned to suicide.

...batting support came from a pair of light-hitting journeymen infielders who had been considered all but washed up. Third Baseman Woody Held, 27, a .204 hitter with only seven home runs last year, hit five homers, knocked in ten runs in his first eight games. Shortstop George Strickland, 33, who actually retired in disgust a year ago and returned only at the urging of Cleveland top brass, was hitting a whopping .360 in stark contrast to his lifetime average of .223. Says Strickland: "I don't want to analyze what I'm doing right...
