Having just stayed in the Via Veneto is was most timely to enjoy this as it was partly filmed in and around the Hotel Excelsior; and also in Trastevere and the Spanish Steps.
Most enjoyable, overheated melodrama though we can't see what Kirk Douglas ever saw in Cyd Charisse - she's awful.
Irwin Shaw novel adapted by Charles Schnee; also The Bad and the Beautiful, Red River, They Live By Night. Photographed by Milton Krasner in CinemaScope.
