What happens
A House Is Not a Home is a 1964 American drama film directed by Russell Rouse and written by Rouse and Clarence Greene, loosely based on the 1953 autobiography by madam Polly Adler. The film stars Shelley Winters, Robert Taylor, Cesar Romero, and Kaye Ballard, with Raquel Welch in her film debut as a call girl. The song of the same name, written for the film by Burt Bacharach and Hal David, has become a standard. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
