Wissenswertes
Although fictionalized, the novel and movie are based on the life story of author Thomas Wolfe.

Patzer
Hawke arrive at a New York City adjacent airport on the day before Christmas - traditionally one of the busiest travel days of the year - yet appears to be only traveler in entire terminal. Hawke also takes leave of Frieda on the deck of an ocean liner taking her to England and there is nobody else there either.

Zitate
Youngblood Hawke: [jealous] It seemed that you preferred his company over mine.
Frieda Winter: Nonsense. He is unsure if he will even start writing the first chapter of his next book. As a matter of fact, he makes me feel kind of motherly... which is something you never did!

Was there an editor's strike in 1964?

This film feels more like an 80s miniseries, glossy, melodramatic, padded and EIGHT HOURS LONG. There is no need for this film to be nearly 150 minutes long.

The three stars are the reason to watch this. James Franciscus is handsome and incredibly appealing as the lead. Suzanne Pleshette is wasted again as the second banana beautiful smart girl. Even if Warner Brothers rarely found her a good role while they had her under contract, they at least knew how to coif and dress her. She is gorgeous. Genieve Page is glamorous, stunning and gives the best performance of the movie.

This films seems to meander along with some melodramatic moments thrown in to keep it going. It is stilted and doesn't gel or flow. It is still glossy and entertaining.
