TV Version
The book was adapted for television as a two part mini-series starring Omar Sharif as Constantin Demiris and Jane Seymour as Catherine Alexander. This miniseries came out in 1991 and follows the events of the book very closely. However, the connection with the preceding book (The Other Side of Midnight), which had been turned into a motion picture was lost as the story was placed in the (then) modern world, rather than immediately post-WWII. Also, the characters of Noelle and Larry are not explored at all, beyond the fact that their affair and attempt to murder Catharine are the trigger for the story's events.

Famous quotes containing the word version:
“If the only new thing we have to offer is an improved version of the past, then today can only be inferior to yesterday. Hypnotised by images of the past, we risk losing all capacity for creative change.”
—Robert Hewison (b. 1943)
