1979 drama
Rating: 14/20
Plot: A father is forced to juggle parenthood and his work after his wife abruptly leaves him. Then, she comes back and wants custody. Women!
What a terrible ending!
Lots of pissing in this movie, and there's some Tab product placement. My favorite part of the entire movie might be at the very beginning when a character passes street musicians rocking a mandolin and a guitar and playing that Vivaldi concerto used for the opening credits. It led me to believe that this would be a little more playful than it ended up being.
I liked the rapport between Dustin Hoffman and the kid (Justin Henry), but every time I see Meryl Streep on the screen, it seems like she's acting. Her performance kind of clashes with Hoffman's more natural one here, but maybe that's part of the point.
