Product Description:
AN OHIO BUSINESSMAN AND HIS WIFE FLY TO NEW YORK AND HAVE NOTHING BUT TROUBLE FOR THE NEXT 24 HOURS.
Amazon.com:
Arthur Hiller (Love Story) directed the film adaptation of Neil Simon's curious comedy about a pair of non-New Yorkers (Jack Lemmon and Sandy Dennis) having a hellish visit to the Big Apple on the eve of a job interview for Lemmon's character. Made in 1970, this hectic film almost seems ahead of its time when compared to more recent misery-piled-on-misery comedies such as Planes, Trains, and Automobiles. The couple in this film endure everything that can go wrong on a trip, including being forced to spend the night in a mugger-happy Central Park. The strange element in Simon's script, though, is that Lemmon's character is so unpleasant. A middle-class, uptight guy who can't believe that New Yorkers in the service profession don't perform their jobs slavishly, he's kind of a one-note joke that quickly wears thin. Remade with Steve Martin and Goldie Hawn. --Tom Keogh

Jack Lemmon and Sandy Dennis play George and Gwen Kellerman, who are on a trip to New York City from their hometown of Twin Oaks, Ohio so that George can get to a very important business meeting the next morning.

The things they go through are the kinds of things that no out-of-town traveler wants to deal with. It is non-stop comedy all the way, and Jack Lemmon and Sandy Dennis play ... Read More

I remember seeing "The Out-Of-Towners" on TV years ago and I just saw it again yesterday(March 7th) on cable(TCM). Poor guys! "Murphy's Law" sure had a grand "field day" with those two!

Jack Lemmon brings so much energy and conviction to the screen that he makes it a 5-star movie. Not Simon's best joke writing, but he is rather ingenious in the non-stop travails that befall this hapless couple. The running gag of taking names may wear on some viewers, but I had to laugh each time at Lemmon's neurotic ranting and bluffing. Early 70s N.Y. is a far cry from the extravaganza it is today, and one scoffs at the "great depression ii" malarky dished out last year, we have it pretty well. ... Read More

I watched this movie with my dad when I was little. My dad has passed away and watching it again I remember how much we laughed together. I am glad I was able to find it. It is a very funny movie
