Editorial Review:
Product Description: ROMANTIC COMEDY ABOUT A CONSERVATIVE LAWYER AND HIS KOOKY BRIDE.
Amazon.com essential video: Devotees of Neil Simon's repartee, such as in his Goodbye Girl and Brighton Beach Memoirs, will enjoy this earlier tale of domestic dispute between newlyweds. Corie (Jane Fonda) is the young housewife trying to keep life exciting while making a home for her and her husband, Paul (Robert Redford), on the fifth floor of a Greenwich Village walkup apartment. He's working hard at starting his career as lawyer; she's eager to be romantic and spontaneous; and the two have plenty to squabble about. The film suffers a bit from Corie's excessive perkiness and the odd lack of chemistry between the two actors. But those who find the dramatic conventions a bit stiff (some of the dialogue and action seems more suited for stage than screen) may still smile at the dated look (circa 1967) at home life. Mildred Natwick is superb as Corie's mother, and Charles Boyer milks his role as the elderly bohemian neighbor upstairs. --Jenny Brown

Well, you can enjoy this movie even without buying it: just sit in front of your TV, turn it off right away and you'll get just about the same amount of excitement out of your evening.

I've seen this film so many times and enjoy each time. I am now buying the DVD. Got to have it in my DVD collection. All four actors are simply great and provide an evening of great fun.

This is probably one of my favorite movies! I first saw it on AMC one night and laughed so hard I was almost crying. After, I had to buy it on DVD. The cast is perfect; Redford and Fonda (Paul and Corie) really play off each other very well but Mildred Natwick (as Corie's mother) positively STEALS the show. She has the best lines of the movie and delivers them perfect.
A great thing about this movie is that it is almost timeless. It is set in the 60s but can actually be relevant even today in my opinion. This is just a wonderful, funny movie and I watch it whenever I can. I even have it on my iPod!

I enjoyed the movie very much. It arrived on time and in new condition.
Thank you.

... that with Jane Fonda and Robert Redford in a Neil Simon's play there would be some entertainment. But, because of (and no thanks to) Gene Saks' unability to be a real director, the result was pure crap, no matter how hard the leads could try : they were not given a chance. We must consider to be very lucky his output was so tiny.....The least Neil Simon could do would be to give excuses for helping the production....
