Going in Style (1979) movie review – George Burns, Art Carney, Lee Strasberg

Going in Style is many things. It is a commentary on how American society treats their aging citizens. It is a wonderful acting vehicle for George Burns, Art Carney and Lee Strasberg. In fact, George Burns won an Oscar for his performance. It is a funny movie, but it is not a happy movie.

Marriage on the Rocks (1965), starring Frank Sinatra, Deborah Kerr, Dean Martin

Product Description of Marriage on the Rocks

What do you do when you have a beautiful house, two great children, and a Marriage on the Rocks? If you’re bored Val Edwards (Deborah Kerr), you swap your fuddy-duddy hubby Dan (Frank Sinatra) for his swingin’ bachelor best friend Ernie (Dean Martin). Watch the sparks fly! Ol’ Blue Eyes breezes through this romantic comedy romp at the head of an all-star cast. Along for the laughs are frequent Sinatra co-stars Martin, Cesar Romero, and Tony Bill, plus daughter Nancy Sinatra and Kerr. The fun starts when the Edwards take a second honeymoon in Mexico. Once there, they fall into the hands of the quickie-divorce/quickie-marriage lawyer Romero. Faster then jumping beans, everybody’s unhitched, rehitched, confused, confounded, and cohabitating. But Dan has the right attitude. “We had a bad marriage”, he says. “Let’s have a happy divorce!”
