Paul and Corie (Robert Redford and Jane Fonda) are newlyweds who remind me a lot of Felix and Oscar from "The Odd Couple". This is because although they are in love, their personalities are so very different. He's very conservative and rational and she's very much a bohemian. Not surprisingly, once they are married and the honeymoon is over, the reality of how different they are becomes all the more obvious and the marriage suffers a huge hit. Can they manage to work out their differences and find a middle ground or are they destined for divorce?
This film works so very well because the characters are so well written and fun. In particular, Mildred Natwick and Charles Boyer were joys in the film...lots of fun and quite nice support for Fonda and Redford. Overall, a truly fun and very well written picture...one that is simply hard to dislike.
