Written for the screen by Neil Simon, based on the Broadway hit. It's about a middle-aged restaurant owner whose fingers smell of fish and whose heart yearns for one memorable affair. After securing a key to his mother's unoccupied apartment, he is free to seek an afternoon fling. But he fumbles his way through three charming and beautiful women who usually have something else on their minds. Each of the women is a bit daffy and, as usual, Simon keeps the one-liners plentiful and fresh.
Editor's Note
This sparkling Neil Simon comedy centers around middle-aged restaurateur Barney Cashman (Alan Arkin), who yearns for a passionate extramarital affair to take him out of his dreary, routine existence. When he finds out his mother's apartment will be empty one afternoon each week, he embarks on a series of encounters with 3 very different women: a cold, unemotional sexpot (Sally Kellerman); a pot-smoking would-be actress (Paula Prentiss); and a feisty housewife (Renee Taylor) who suffers from depression. Simon's funny, perceptive script examines the needs and dissatisfactions that propel men and women to pursue sexual relationships--and the difficult emotional complexities that often result.
Plot Summary
When mid-life crisis strikes Barney Cashman he decides to shake up his boring, married existence and have an affair. Using his mother's apartment as a love nest, the would-be Lothario attempts to seduce three different woman, each more neurotic than the next.
