Anecdotes
In his 1989 autobiography "It Would Be So Nice If You Weren't Here...", Charles Grodin recounts that Neil Simon repeatedly asked for actress Jeannie Berlin to be replaced because he did not find her pretty enough, not realizing that Berlin was the daughter of director Elaine May.

Gaffes
When he parks his car at the beginning of the movie, the parking ticket mysteriously appears on his windshield immediately after he gets out.

Citations
Lenny Cantrow: This is honest food. There is no lying in that beef. There's no insincerity in those potatoes. There's no deceit in the cauliflower. This is a totally honest meal.

A disappointment; so little makes sense

I was expecting to love this film for its cynicism and absurdity, but I couldn't get past the cold and self-absorbed characters and the overall *meanness* of their depiction. Motivation is in short supply too. Why would Lenny and Lila want to get married? Does Lenny just want sex? Can't he do better? Lila must have been repellent even while they were dating. Who goes to Miami for a honeymoon? What is Kelly Corcoran's attraction to Lenny? What are the Corcorans doing in that hotel? Shouldn't they be Catholic if they're named Corcoran? Etc. Etc.

I recognize the chilly absurdity from the Bruce Jay Friedman source, but I guess it didn't translate well to the screen. Others seem to like it though.
