1971
funny, smart, and so sad–just like you, honey. a bobo dramedy of manners that, unlike all the others i can think of (and i love this genre!), feels wired and dangerous. a sensibly jagged straight lady for a sexy bi rake; a sexy bi rake for a smoothly sensible old queen. each to his own, and schlesinger doesn't skimp. money and intelligence emerge as lenses for one's pain, never as its antidote. everyone in this film is young or old or both; everyone in this film is absurd, and totally credible. i want to be like glenda jackson! really good
