Thi movie started out fine. It seemed like it would be an interesting and humorous look at playboy sexuality. Somewhere along the line, it lost its way. It flits from subject to subject and has an ending that is as meaningless as the whole flick.
What are we to make of the dated conversation between McGraw and her lover where she blithely admits that she's been using no contraception because,"What do you think? People just get pregnant the first few times they have sex?" Um.. yeah. This couple actually breaks up because her parents find out they are having sex. She has some sort of emotional breakdown over it and he walks out. The End. Huh??? Other issues covered include Judaism father/daughter relations and male insensitivity. None of them well or in depth. It is inconceivable to me that this lame "comedy" actually won an Oscar for best screenplay. Just goes to show the academy's taste can be inexplicable.
