Plot: Blake Edwards co-wrote and directed this seriocomedy about a couple of rich and famous Malibuans forced to re-examine their lives and values during a weekend party celebrating the husband's 60th birthday. Jack Lemmon and Julie Andrews star as Harvey and Gillian Fairchild. Harvey is a successful architect who has attained his wealth by flattering his rich clients and compromising his ideals. Although he has everything he could want out of life, he is still unhappy. He looks at himself in the mirror and sees a middle-aged man who hates himself, feels that his children don't love him, and thinks that he is dying. Gillian, a successful singer, tries to bolster his self-confidence so that he can have a wonderful birthday. But she has problems of her own -- she has just returned from her doctor, who has informed her that she may have throat cancer. The doctor won't know for sure until the tests come back on Monday. In the meantime, Gillian tries to keep up a brave front for Harvey's celebration. ~ Paul Brenner, All Movie Guide

LOVE this movie. Depicts male menopause to a T (no offense to the men-folk here, my dh loves it, too.) It's very well done, builds tension well, and has many interesting characters.

Hello. I just wanted to share my oppinion about this dvd. I simply loved it. Julie Andrews is simply stunningly spectacular in this movie. Imagine a woman struggling with her own problems while she is trying to keep her, quite selfish, man happy and dealing with her adult children's lives. It is really quite hilarious. This movie is also serious, the themes is death, cancer and familyaffairs. If you like Julie Andrews I promise this movie will definetly be something for you.

I think to totally enjoy this movie, you need to be 60 or close to it!! It has so much of life little problems that crop up when you suddenly realize you are turning 60!.... and it is good to laugh at life and yourself. My husband and I totally enjoyed it.... and .... That's Life!!

Jack Lemmon plays a character who is reaching his 6oth birthday and is convinced he's dying. He becomes sort of a raving spoiled maniac, totally neglecting his long-suffering wife (Julie Andrews) who really IS dying and knows it but keeps it to herself. (Kind of; the ending is a bit of a surprise.) Lemmon's antics seem to go on too long and become tiring, and Andrews's stoicism is a bit too strong to believe. But the movie is effective in spots and is not a total disaster.
