The characters of Selena Cross and Ted Carter are nothing like the book and what happens to them in this movie isn't as interesting. <a href="/people/690/000042564/">Mary Astor</a> is just right as Ted's puritanical mother. Jeff Chandler is good as Allison's book editor Lewis Jackman but he and Carol Lynley only kiss (and only once at that!) and do not have an affair like in the book. I recommend this movie but only as the second part of a DVD double feature with the original <i>Peyton Place</i>. <p> <hr width=15% align=left><p><table><tr><td><img src="/rarrow.gif"></td><td>Have you seen this film?
