You either love Frank or you hate him, that's all there is to it.  Take the Frank factor out and this is still a great flick.  Kim Novak is gorgeous to look at and plays the role of a good girl trying to make it in the rough world in a very charming way.  Rita Hayworth is just lovely as the poor girl made good turned sugar momma.  The music carries the story along in a way that you just don't see anymore.
