For 'The Arrangement' Elia Kazan adapted and directs from his own 1967 novel of the same name. Kirk Douglas is an advertising man whose affair with Faye Dunaway leaves him unhinged. So it's like 'Mad Men' only shitty. Pretentious and scattered, some good work from the two leads but this drag of a film is weighed down by the general unlikability of nearly every character, middling supporting work (I'm talking to you Deborah Karr) and Kazan's desperate need to be relevant, by far his worst film. A dull blade of a movie, mid-life crises drivel. It made me kind of mad. *
