A young couple trying for a baby move into an aging, ornate apartment building on Central Park West, but find themselves surrounded by peculiar neighbours.

D'Urville Martin, who plays the role of the Bamford's elevator operator, would--51 years later--be portrayed by Wesley Snipes in Dolemite Is My Name (2019) as an aging, underemployed actor recruited to direct the first "Dolemite" film, who brags about his appearance in this iconic thriller.
