A successful young L.A. doctor and his equally successful television-producer wife find their happily-ever-after life torn assunder when he suddenly confronts his long-repressed attraction for other men. Zach and Claire live a comfortable life secure in their love for one another when Bart, a swinging L.A. novelist, walks into Zach's office and awakens unfamiliar feelings in him. In a move which leaves him wracked with guilt, Zach cancels dinner with his wife in order to go out with Bart. He is inexplicably drawn to this man who seems intent on keeping him at arms distance. Why can't Bart allow their relationship to grow he wonders. Exasperated, he asks Bart, "Do you snore Does anybody ever get a chance to find out" As Zach's absences become more and more frequent, Claire's concern manifests itself in the suspicion that he is having an affair with another woman. Jilted by Bart and feeling alone for the first time in his married life, Zach resolves to tell Claire the truth about himself.

"...An absorbing tale....A beautifully crafted production with a fascinating concept..." 02/10/1982New York Times

Arthur Hiller's Making Love tells the story of a couple that has been married for eight years -- happily married, according to the evidence -- when the husband has an affair with another man, discovers that he is gay, and decides to leave his wife. Making Love is limited primarily to the characters' sexual identities. There would be no movie if the husband were not homosexual; this film has nothing else to be about. Its characters, as written, aren't open to the surprises of real life, because the movie is single-mindedly about the specific nature of their sexual dilemma. - Roger Ebert
