This film was something of a movie stunt: writer-director Blake Edwards cast his friends and family, gave them a structure, then had them improvise the scenes before he put them into a script. The result is so amazingly flat that you'll be astonished that anyone would think they were actually doing something interesting. The plot centers on a writer (Jack Lemmon) who, in his anxiety about the onset of his 60th birthday, doesn't notice that his singer-wife (Julie Andrews) is going through a crisis of her own: a throat ailment that may be cancer. The cast, which includes both Edwards's and Lemmon's kids, flutters around them searching for a way to kick-start the plot, but we're left to watch Lemmon twittering about in the midst of a very late midlife crisis. --Marshall Fine

LOVE this movie. Depicts male menopause to a T (no offense to the men-folk here, my dh loves it, too.) It's very well done, builds tension well, and has many interesting characters.

Hello. I just wanted to share my oppinion about this dvd. I simply loved it. Julie Andrews is simply stunningly spectacular in this movie. Imagine a woman struggling with her own problems while she is trying to keep her, quite selfish, man happy and dealing with her adult children's lives. It is really quite hilarious. This movie is also serious, the themes is death, cancer and familyaffairs. If you like Julie Andrews I promise this movie will definetly be something for you.

I think to totally enjoy this movie, you need to be 60 or close to it!! It has so much of life little problems that crop up when you suddenly realize you are turning 60!.... and it is good to laugh at life and yourself. My husband and I totally enjoyed it.... and .... That's Life!!

Jack Lemmon plays a character who is reaching his 6oth birthday and is convinced he's dying. He becomes sort of a raving spoiled maniac, totally neglecting his long-suffering wife (Julie Andrews) who really IS dying and knows it but keeps it to herself. (Kind of; the ending is a bit of a surprise.) Lemmon's antics seem to go on too long and become tiring, and Andrews's stoicism is a bit too strong to believe. But the movie is effective in spots and is not a total disaster.

Being a Julie fan, I wanted to start collecting some of her movies. This one I didn't have. Upon watching it, I found myself Fast-Forwarding through most of it because of the language (her husband). The movie has a wonderful story behind it but it really bothered me when I heard Julie spoke some language herself in one part of the movie. Definitely not a family movie.
