It might be nearly 70 years old, but the themes examined in this adaptation of Robert Gore-Brown's novel have a kind of timelessness that makes it gripping stuff even today. Colman stars as the married lawyer who develops a serious seven-year itch when his wife goes away for a few days, and has a passionate fling with a salesgirl (Barry). However, the consequences come crashing around him when he leaves her and she commits suicide. The ensuing scandal poses fascinating moral dilemmas, well handled by both director and cast!!!! A lost film ,
