VHS Movie Reviews of A New Leaf [VHS]

Movie Review: At times funny, but nothing approaching classic
Summary: 3 Stars

Excited to see this movie lauded with praise and presenting the Matthau-Mays pairing, I was dissapointed in the delivery. Although at times humorous and sophisticated, the movie labors frequently and convoluted wordplay is often
much ado about nothing. There's no real chemistry between Walter and Elaine,
and the characters aren't defined or beleivable. The whole farce about the staff on the take was very flat as well. Aside from several on cue moments from Walter, this movie is largely dissapointing, and lacks the zip of the similarly
veined "How to murder your wife" with Jack Lemmon.

Summary of A New Leaf [VHS]

Elaine May wrote, directed, and starred in this acidic comedy about a wealthy playboy (Walter Matthau) who discovers that he has nearly spent all of his fortune. Casting about for a solution to his money problems that won't actually involve work, he finds a desperate solution: He'll marry an heiress (May) for her fortune. The hitch: She's a social maladept ("The woman is feral," Matthau growls). Indeed, Matthau finds marriage so intolerable that he decides there's only one course of action, which is to actively pursue making himself a widower by bumping her off. An offbeat, funny, and dry film, with a wonderfully misanthropic performance by Matthau and a sharply drawn one by May. --Marshall Fine
