[edit] Spoilers

I don't know what constitutes spoilers so I only included what would probably be found on the movie cover. I suppose wikipedia is not the place, but I have to comment on the unease that permeates the movie, and how you both hate and hope for Milland. You even catch a glimpse of why he could be great, and what he sees in the alcohol. --Ignignot 17:27, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Reference to novel may be inaccurate

I happen to own the novel and I believe the reference in this article to the author/protagonist having an "affair" with someone in college is inaccurate. I recall it more as a homosexual infatuation. Can anyone reference a specific page in the book where it is described as an affair? A great book but I'd hate to have to pour through it again for that reference.--Mantanmoreland 23:47, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
