Additional Information
Additional Information
Jacqueline Susann's bold best seller that explored the avenues and darkest alleys of love among the international set. "Once Is Not Enough".
The Husband for sale - bought for $3 million. The Daughter - a virgin eager to make up for lost time. The Novelist who couldn't live the fantasies he wrote about.
Based on the sensational best seller.
In 1975, Paramount Pictures released a film adaptation, Jacqueline Susann's Once Is Not Enough, directed by Guy Green and written by Julius J. Epstein (Casablanca). Starring Kirk Douglas as Mike Wayne, Alexis Smith (in her first film since 1959) as Deirdre Milford Granger, Melina Mercouri as Karla, and Deborah Raffin as January, the film was produced by Howard W. Koch and executive-produced by Susann's husband, Irving Mansfield. The musical score was composed by Henry Mancini.
The film received negative reviews; Vincent Canby, in The New York Times, offered a multiple-choice "audience participation" review, in which the reader was given four choices (ludicrous, bad, terrible, horrendous) by which to evaluate the movie.[9]
Despite the reviews, the film was a commercial success, earning $15.7 million at the box office (equivalent to $65.2 million in 2017).[10] Brenda Vaccaro, as Linda Riggs, received an Oscar nomination for her performance.
