A self destructive and suicidal actress (Mia Farrow) is her own worst enemy. Her married lover (Ed Flanders) won't leave his wife, her millionaire (John Colicos) fiance is controlling and wants her to give up her career and her best friend (Hal Holbrook) is tired of picking up the pieces. Directed by Fielder Cook (A BIG HAND FOR THE LITTLE LADY), the movie serves as a showcase for a perfectly cast Mia Farrow. Fragile and neurotic, she seems ready to break up into little pieces at any given moment. It's a shame the script can't/doesn't do much more than provide a setting for her performance and its cliched "happy" ending goes against all the grain that has preceded it. The supporting cast does what it can, which isn't much. With Martin Sheen, Walter Koenig and Marlene Warfield.
