 Rated 6/10
Overblown melodrama on and off the job at a metropolitan newspaper. Adam (Montgomery Clift) is a young writer who is hired by publisher Shrike (Robert Ryan) to write a lonely hearts column, much to Adam's chagrin. After all, he's having his own problems with his lovely girlfriend (Dolores Hart) who thinks he's an orphan because he's ashamed to admit his old man is a jailbird. Shrike plays hardball with Adam, seemingly devoting his life to following him around, pontificating, delivering cryptic words of wisdom, and verbally torturing a man already on the edge.

Lonelyhearts marks the screen debut of Maureen Stapleton, the only saving grace in this monochrome soap opera.
