Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaJoan Crawford, recently elected to the board of directors of Pepsi after the death of her husband who had been President and CEO of the company, managed to swing a brief quasi product plug for the soft drink by having an unmistakable Pepsi machine (with the red, white, and blue Pepsi logo, but sans the word "Pepsi") installed in the secretaries' on-screen break room.
- GoofsIn the scene when Diane Baker tells Hope Lange "he's ten foot tall to me" while walking down the street, several people... two men and two young boys... look into the camera, smiling (they were obviously filming with a camera hidden in a car during these scenes as those people weren't extras).

Excellent Film!
I feel very strongly that this film was just like Waiting to Exhale with white females in the 1950's. As in Waiting to Exhale, all of the female characters got mixed up with men who were either married or no good. The only difference, besides the obvious, was that there wasn't much humor in this film. I would even say that it was tragic. Only one of the male characters seemed to be kind and sincere (Hope Lange's guy), but even then there was conflict in this relationship.
The story was about three young women who shared an apartment together and who had hopes and dreams of success. Unfortunately for them, romance didn't seem to come easy although they were young, intelligent and attractive. This movie could be called a tearjerker with the saddest part involving Suzy Parker's character whose obsession of an ex-boyfriend leads to tragedy.
This is a must see.
