Luchino Visconti (Rocco and His Brothers) directed German Actress Romy Schneider as the wife of a titled amorist who goes for $1,000-a-night call girls and has a bottomless exchequer to assure his supply.

Swartz of the law firm of Schneider, Reilly, and McCardle, had argued that the University was liable for the alleged negligence under a legal exception to the charitable immunity doctrine: that in this case Harvard was acting in a proprietary rather than charitable capacity by providing medical care for a fee under the terms of a pre-paid insurance plan...
