A Kiss before Dying

Robert Wagoner plays a student who just got a girl pregnant (Joanne Woodward).  He gets rid of her.  Only he finds himself liking her sister.  Wagoner is good as the villain.  Only this is no where as good as the book.  Ira Levin wrote Rosemary's Baby and The Stepford Wives too.  Coming up with imaginative plots was no problem for Ira. However A Kiss before Dying is my favorite book of his.  It just wasn't as juicy as the book.
