The film is another collaboration between director Lumet and scriptwriter Jay Presson Allen, and it's certainly a change of pace from their last effort, the memorable "Prince of the City." Although the film consists almost entirely of interior shots, Lumet devises a variety of camera angles and settings to keep things fluid.

The cast has a grand time, with Caine and Dyan Cannon (as his high-strung wife) hamming it up, abetted by Irene Worth as a psychic neighbor with a Dutch accent to thick you could slice it with a knife.
