Description
Effective psychological love story with a macabre twist not found in the original Joy Cowley novel. The dreary existence of middle–aged spinster Maura Prince takes an unexpected turn with the arrival of young handyman Billy Jarvis, but there is more to Billy than meets the eye. This well–crafted film, full of sexual tension and Gothic flavor, was Patricia Neal's second after her return to acting, her real–life stroke worked deftly into the story by then–husband Roald Dahl.
