A fairly interesting film though I found that Peter Sellers' character detracted from my enjoyment of the film though usually he is an actor that I enjoy. His humour - such as it was - and the different characters he played and ultimately the manner he used throughout the film were not in sync with the tone of the film, in my opinion. Shelley Winters' character is one who you want to feel sympathetic towards - especially when her advances are initially rejected then taken advantage of by the male widower. The young woman is initially appealing in her strength and weakness but once she has deserted the step-father then she is revealed for being little more than someone who uses others.
