This movie (and book) helped me once, a long time ago. I love Nora Ephron's Jewish humor. The book is more Jewish than the movie.
"If you want monogamy, marry a swan!"
Super cast, including Kevin Spacey in a small role. Lots of humorous moments intertwined with drama, like in real life. Missed the movie when it was new, but the theme song was familiar. The film was propably... (read more) "If you want monogamy, marry a swan!"

i love it
i even made keylime pie for the first time because of this film :D and 100% coz of meryl
Another fabulous performance by Meryl Streep in this movie based on the book by Nora Ephron. And many small but wonderful turns by some of Hollywood's biggest stars of the future!
I hate nothing more than a film centered around two annoying and ultimately unlikable characters bickering back and forth for the entire movie.

Great Performances By Nicholson and Streep Featuring Carly Simon's Perfect Coming Around Again!
