Plot

Brooke Collier (Farrow) is an unstable Hollywood starlet who still clings to her ragdoll like a child, despite the rising amount of very adult problems in her life - her career has stalled, she is having an affair with a married man (Flanders), and she suffers violent, irrational mood swings. In an attempt to rebound from her life's failings, she accepts a marriage proposal from a millionaire (Colicos). Throughout all of her internal, and occasionally external, conflicts, her only friend is a frustrated writer and neighbor, Harlan Webb (Holbrook). As Brooke's situation and temperament become increasingly dire, Harlan may be the only one who can save her from herself.
