Where Love Has Gone (1964)

Where Love Has Gone movie storyline. After his teenage daughter Danny is arrested for the murder of his ex-wife’s current lover, Luke Miller recalls his marriage to Valerie Hayden and the subsequent events which led to the tragedy. The lurid story seems to have been suggested by the real-life Lana Turner/Johnny Stompanato/Cheryl Crane murder scandal of six years earlier when Lana’s daughter Cheryl stabbed her mother’s boyfriend (Stompanato) to death in the bedroom of Lana’s Beverly Hills home.

Where Love Has Gone is a 1964 American Technicolor drama film in Techniscope made by Embassy Pictures, Joseph E. Levine Productions and Paramount Pictures. It was directed by Edward Dmytryk and produced by Joseph E. Levine from a screenplay by John Michael Hayes based on the 1962 novel of the same name by Harold Robbins. The music score was by Walter Scharf, the cinematography by Joseph MacDonald and the costume design by Edith Head.

The film stars Susan Hayward and Bette Davis with Mike Connors, Jane Greer, Joey Heatherton, DeForest Kelley, George Macready, Anne Seymour, Willis Bouchey, Walter Reed and Ann Doran.

The theme song “Where Love Has Gone” by Jimmy Van Heusen and Sammy Cahn was nominated for both an Academy Award and Golden Globe in the “Best Song” category. Jack Jones sang the theme song on his album of the same name.
