The tired truth of why sex doesn't pay for the story of Rose Weber, who loses her first fiance in the war, her second when-after a few drinks too many- he wakes up with another wife. Rose, soured on and smartened by men, plays them for what she can get, from bootlegger Tony to lawyer Maurie; she achieves the good things in life but finds none of them worthwhile when at fifty she's through as a pinup girl- and a pickup as well.... Lots of opportunity for bedroom detail, and it's not neglected, in what is otherwise confessional material. No- for Public Libraries.
