A mindgames playing couple played by James Caan and Katharine Ross invites an intriguing older lady into their lives. Simone Signoret plays an aging cosmetics saleswoman invited to spice up their lives. The couple thought they were experienced, but could they be outplayed by her? The performances by all three are good. The tension is predicated on the likability of the couple Caan and Ross. That's questionable. They are written with too much callousness. They don't play nice normal people and I don't really care what happens to them. But it's a good exercise of whodunnit for the mind. At its core, it mattered very little the outcome. It makes the movie less than what it could have been.
