___________________________________
Clifford Day Vanderwall, a Wasp who attended Princeton and The Wharton
School, has a trust fund, a nifty job at IBM, and a spacious apartment
on Manhattan's Upper East Side. What's wrong with this picture? Clifford
cannot make decisions. He would rather procrastinate hoping the decision
will go away by itself.
At a society mixer, he meets fortune hunter Shirley Horner. They are perfectly
matched: Clifford is a born victim and Shirley is a born predator. After
assessing the size of Clifford's balance sheet, Shirley traps him in a
web of deceit. She gradually controls every aspect of Clifford's life,
redoing his apartment, his clothes, his choice of friends, and his leisure
activities. After manipulating Clifford into marriage, Shirley quits her
job and begins an affair with a rich Portuguese playboy. Most men would
jump ship but not Clifford. Lacking the ability to make up his mind, Clifford
appears to be doomed in this outrageous satire about love among New York's
upper crust.
