Plaza Suite


1971 romantic comedy

Rating: 15/20

Plot: Three cynical romantic stories all taking place in the same luxury suite at the Plaza Hotel.

Three cynical romantic stories, all starring the more-versatile-than-you-might-expect Walter Matthau. He's fun to watch in all three, but the first of the stories--and arguably the best of the three--is really driven by Maureen Stapleton who plays his wife. She's a delight.

As I've mentioned many times before, I enjoy movies that take place in hotels. I should make a list. I probably said the exact same thing the last time I watched a hotel/motel movie.

Based on a Neil Simon play, this does feel a little stagy at times, but there's some sneaky great camera work.
