I loved this film. Warren plays a piano player/degenerate gambler who has a gig on the strip. The piano music stopped me in my tracks. WHO was dubbing this exquisite piano? It most certainly wasn't Warren doing the playing. I found the films credits on line, but no mention of whose talents were used for the piano. This makes me crazy! Anyway, an aging Las Vegas woman, Fran Walker (Elizabeth Taylor) drifts into an affair with Joe Grady (Warren Beatty) while waiting for her married lover to finalize the divorce he has been promising to get for the past five years.
By the time he keeps his word and is free to marry Fran, she's fallen in love with Joe. But here's the interesting part: When the married lover comes back to get Fran, he shows up with the following:
A finalized divorce decree, signed, sealed and hand delivered
Two airline tickets to New York where they'll be marriedThen on to Paris for a honeymoon
A bottle of champagne
A 10 carrot diamond ring and
A promise to have her belongings sent to where ever they settle. "Just pack the minimum, and what ever you need we'll buy in New York".
