Quote:
It’s not unusual for pre-production publicity on a new film to revolve around the star or the director but it’s particularly rare when it focuses on a construction site. In the case of the glossy 1960 soap opera, Strangers When We Meet, directed by Richard Quine, the real star of the movie was the cliff top Bel Air home that was constructed especially for the film by architect Carl Anderson and art director Ross Bellah. Central to the storyline, the house with the ocean view is the vision of architect Larry Coe (Kirk Douglas) who is building it for a successful novelist, Roger Altar (Ernie Kovacs), who wants something different and unique. In the course of construction, Coe, who is bored with his marriage to Eve (Barbara Rush), meets and ardently pursues Maggie Gault (Kim Novak), a sexy, blonde housewife he first encounters at his son’s elementary school when they are dropping off their children.Read More »

When swaggering and conceited teddy boy Mike isn’t combing his wavy hair in a stance reminiscent of The Fonz, he’s latching onto each and every female who crosses his slimy path.

“The only thing that really makes life worth living is women,” Yorgos tells us as he darts around in his little sports car picking up one woman after another. He’s young, he’s rich, he’s Greek, and he doesn’t want to settle down in the family business. And why should he? Yorgos really has the knack with women. They find him irresistible, either because of his “sad eyes” or because he’s got ideas “more exciting than feeding ducks.” (?!)

When Yorgos takes Delia for a ride one day after school, she wants to show him her “favorite place.” Apparently Yorgos shows her his favorite place too because, at the end of the movie, she turns up at his door pregnant.Read More »
