Strong cast's reliable playing is undercut by a script that dawdles over well-trod territory.

The ladies are well bred, the scenery is lovely and the dialogue is polished and polite. It helps that the same villa in Portofino where Miss von Armin wrote the novel has been used to fine effect as the film's principal setting.

Personalities clash but are cheerfully reconciled, and marital tensions are swiftly resolved.
