This is a paint by numbers narrative. Wealthy industrialist family is thrown into sexual turmoil by the arrival of louche Terrence Stamp, who doesn’t appear to do anything except read Verlaine and screw. When he leaves the siblings, wife and maid all have their own respective breakdowns. It’s all beautifully unsubtle and formulaic. Sometimes you don’t need anything more than a basic blueprint to get your ideas across.
