Neil Simon at his best.

Robert Redford is great as the new husband trying to start a career and a marriage simultaneously. Jane Fonda is superb as the young wife whose lust for life is contagious and a bit overwhelming. But my favorite is Mildred Natwick as the mother who endures a wild night with the newlyweds and their eccentric neighbor. The movie is fraught with excellent dialog and great comedic timing, and the characters are developed extremely well.
It feels more like a play than a film when all is said and done.
