Shelley Winters plays the New York madam, Polly Adler, in this disappointingly phony melodrama, which tries to be raunchy and moralistic at the same time.
The cast of the film, which is written by Clarence Greene and Russell Rouse and directed by Rouse, includes Robert Taylor, Cesar Romero, and Broderick Crawford.
