Plot
A bitter middle-aged professor and his wife entertain a younger couple after a faculty party and tear one another apart through the night.
Sinekatalog’s take
Mike Nichols's film stages one night of savage verbal warfare between a married couple. Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton are volcanic, and the play-turned-film is exhausting and compelling.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
