American director Jules Dassin delivered a minor work with the adaptation of the Marguerite Duras' novel. A couple's marriage disintegrates on a journey through Spain when the wife suspects her husband's infidelity with their beautiful friend. Dassin was the wrong director for this melodrama whose wife, Melina Mercouri stars along with Peter Finch and Romy Schneider. The only saving grace is the stunning cinematography by Gábor Pogány which still holds up. 1001 Films' coverage of films on DVD.
