...professor, who speaks solemnly, holds forth portentously and submits wordlessly to his small-scale destiny. David Macdonald is suitably well-muscled as Nick, but isn't very convincing during his more intelligent outbursts. Patricia Dunnock is far too annoying and babyish as Honey for us to really feel the horror of her climactic drunken confession.

Susan Santoian dresses Martha...
