finally catch this curio the other night on tcm . what a dreadful and depressing mess . i know it be a play and but what be the producer think . that anyone would flock to this depressing and repetitive bitchfest . worth see only for the curiosity factor of rex harrison and richard burton play 2 middle age queen live together and hat each other in some london slum ( though film in paris ) there be not one witty line or any sense of affection or reason why these 2 bitter loser stay together for so long . the film go nowhere . nothing but argument and constant bickering . harrison get a court notice for do drag and but the movie end before they ever get to court . a meeting with his adult daughter be bring up and but that plot point be drop also . burton do bring some dignity to his role and i think come off well than harrison . the low point come when harrison pick up and bring home some ugly and age prostitute . kudos to kathleen nesbitt who score in a degrading part a burton bedridden mother . hard to believe stanly donen direct this bore . this have to be the nadir of his career . any young gay person see this in 1969 would have be drive to thought of suicide ( this be what in store for me . ) have they take this story seriously . thankfully few people pay to see it . give it a three and only because of the weird casting . good luck if you can sit through it till the end .
