- Citações
Casey Booth: I can't tell you how many times I started to come back to New York. I just couldn't forget you. Polly, I can't fight it forever. Tonight I sat and waited for you to come in nervous as a school kid on his first date, not knowing what you'd say when you saw me. Polly, that night that I acted like such a heel you must have known it was because I loved you.
Polly Adler: I loved you too, Casey.
Casey Booth: I still hate what you stand for. I still despise what you're doing. But I'm still in love with you and there is nothing I can do about it. Polly, marry me.
Polly Adler: Oh, Casey. Only you and your Never Never Land could believe such a thing was possible. People just won't let it happen, Casey. They would never let you forget that you're married to madam Polly Adler.
Casey Booth: We'll go some place where nobody knows us. Nobody to point fingers at us. Nobody to call names.
Polly Adler: Oh, Casey. I just don't know.
Casey Booth: Look, Polly I've come back. I came back because I love you. Isn't that enough?
Polly Adler: Oh, Casey. Don't you think I want to believe it... that I want to think it so? But I just don't know. I'm confused... and afraid.
Casey Booth: We've got one life time. One life time. And there's not that much happiness to throw ours away.

Sung by Brook Benton
By Hal David and Burt Bacharach
Ms. Benton's Arrangement by Alan Lorber
Shelley Winters a tad younger would have been perfect casting in the part of New York City's famous bordello madam. Still she does the best she can with the part. Folks like Robert Taylor, Cesar Romero, and Broderick Crawford are too old for the roles they played and show it. Romero plays Lucky Luciano who was in his late thirties when Thomas E. Dewey sent him to prison not in his fifties as Romero is, distinguished as he always looked.
According to The Films of Robert Taylor, he was not happy with his work here, but took the role because he had a young family to support. And a more brutally honest film was something he'd never have consented to appear in anyway.
Some young actresses who played Polly's girls gave some over the top performances. Understandable they didn't have careers of any substantial length.
A House Is Not a Home will not be remembered by Robert Taylor's fans as one of his great films and it was a bad bump in the road in the career of Shelley Winters.
