I kind of hesitated to put this on my love list; but this is not one of your happily ever after love stories; Adultery, greed and heartache play pivotal roles in this movie; one man’s reputation is soiled by what his neighbor’s think is going on in his place when it is just one lonely yet savvy man’s quest to get in on the big league; John Lemmon plays this hard working fella at this large company who “lets” married adulterous men borrow his place in order for them to “entertain” their girlfriends; He thought he hit the jackpot when Fred MacMurray, the head man , asked for the key in return to his getting a promotion; what he DIDN’T bargain on was coming home to find that the very object of his affections(Shirley McClaine) was the plaything of the big boss, then got depressed and tried to kill herself on Christmas Eve because her sweetie rather be with family than her, but when Lemmon finds her, he brings her back to health, restores her and though all this is done, folks swear he was the reason she tried to off herself; real dark story but with a nice ending;
