Notes: Originally released in 1965 (122 mins. Black & White); Nominated for five 1966 Academy Awards;
Summary: A London photographer’s model proceeds from an immature marriage into a series of shady affairs– first with a television talker, then with a slick promotion man, and ultimately in a palazzo as the loveless wife of an Italian prince. After becoming a prisoner of her own success through these disastrous affairs, she realizes the awful price she has paid for happiness. This is a slashing social satire and a devastating spoof of the synthetic, stomach-turning output of the television-advertising age.
