QuickView
Story-line: when marital problems leave Felix Ungar homeless, his good friend Oscar Madison invites him to stay at his place. But can Felix and Oscar be roomies as well as buddies?
Pluses: superb acting, Neil Simon’s fine screenplay, a typical mid-60s feel, Neal Hefti’s catchy musical theme.
Minuses: none whatsoever.
Comments: Lemmon and Matthau may have been cast as an odd couple in this funny movie but they were above all a formidable pair of thespians. Linguine aside, you will enjoy this pleasant, unassuming film!
