When Repetition Can Be Hysterical
I’ve been reading some of the comments for this film, and I can’t understand those who don’t find it funny. Apparently they’ve never traveled or have never experienced a modicom of mess while traveling (and I LOVE to travel), or, have simply never had a really bad 48 hours, doing whatever! Lemmon’s shear repetition of wanting to get everyone’s phone number and address is hysterical, because through his fatigue in trying to cope with one problem after another in The Big Apple, he still finds the strength to take down everyone’s name and number, and promises to retaliate at a later point in time. Sandy Dennis is a perfect, calm, albeit understandably very fatigued, foil for Lemmon’s frustrated and hyper New Yorker-wannabe. For me, she’s always a gem to watch.The scene in which Lemmon loses a tooth, followed by losing his hearing, followed by the ability to hear only every other word spoken, is quietly hysterical. Also very funny is his scene in the park “talking” to a little boy….that’s all I’ll say about that one. Overall, if you’re in the mood for observing high-speed neurosis, played to comedic perfection by the inimitable Jack Lemmon, watch this film, and enjoy.
Better than the Remake!
I didn’t appreciate this film until I saw the updated version. This film starring Jack Lemmon and Sandy Dennis as Ohio visitors to New York City. The trip is nearly disastrous from the moment that they get off the airplane. Of course, this film is one of Neil Simon’s better works. The couple lose their luggage, get robbed, and don’t have a clue about the way that the city works. George is here for a job interview and has high hopes of moving to the city with his wife, kids, and dogs. He has a romanticized notion of New York City that he sees in the films and television shows. Being there is different from just the movies, I think the ending speaks for itself. New York City is not for everyone but it’s how they came to the realization of how tough it is to be New Yorker and even the ending is something that could have generated a sequel.
