this be a horrible disappointment and with equally terrible act and direction and screenplay . it so bad one can not help think it somehow a comedic takeoff on the maugham book and but the punch line never arrive . there be a reason a to why it fail it bad than a tv movie . they shamelessly butcher the maugham classic reduce it to a charmless mess . the character have none of maugham depth or interest and and be reduce to one dimension . it be extremely difficult to sit through and and while i love bill murray and i be sure this be some of his bad work . seem like he step out of saturday night live sketch . i do not know how anyone could recommend this . do not waste your time .
