In most roles, Walter Matthau is the wise cracking, cantancerous character who leaves us a bit perplexed but loving his character anyway. In Kotch, Mr. Matthau plays a wise, loving grandfather trying to connect with his son and daughter-in-law's impatience with this old man whom she deems ready to be put "out to pasture".

Jack Lemmon may very well be my favorite comedic actor ever. Walter Matthau, which annoying at times, has always been a good screen partner for Lemmon. With that thought in mind I became intrigued at the idea of Lemmon directing Matthau. I was a little hesitant knowing that this wasn't an all out comedy (it does try to be humorous, but there is a big difference) but I figured that since Lemmon has shown he has some dramatic chops (he fairs better in films like `Save the Tiger' than he does in `Missing', but ...

KOTCH, IS A WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE IN WHAT LIFE CAN AND DOES OFFER WHEN YOU TRY HARD ENOUGH.....WALTER MATHEAU IS, FOR ALL HIS FANS, A TRULY WONDERFUL CHARACTER ACTOR AND OFFERS HIS ALL IN WHATEVER ROLE HE UNDERTAKES, HE CAN BE AS FUNNY AS A CLOWN AND IN A DIFFERENT ROLE HE CAN HAVE YOU CRYING.
