Quiz
The role of Sheila Shea was originally written for Sandy Dennis. Co-star Paul Dooley was seriously allergic to cats though. When cat-lover Dennis would come to the script readings with up to five cats at a time, he was briefly hospitalized. The role was then offered to Shelley Duvall, who had worked with director Robert Altman on six pictures, but she turned it down. As a result, Allan F. Nicholls then re-wrote the role of Sheila Shea from an earth mother type to the young singer-groupie played by Marta Heflin. Both stars had appeared in the director's previous film Un matrimonio (1978) which had premiered the previous year in 1978. Duvall and Altman would collaborate on a motion picture one more time the following year with Popeye - Braccio di ferro (1980).

Sheila Shea: Yes.
Alex Theodopoulos: No!
ER doctor: Some doctors don't like to give out pain-killers, but when you've seen as much pain as I have, it makes you want to kill it.
ER doctor: [to both] I don't think you two should be kissing while I'm suturing,

Oddest assortment of dysfunctional characters I've seen in a while

Off the wall romantic comedy with one of the strangest plots I've ever seen. A middle aged man who still lives at home with his entire family falls for a woman 20 years his junior. This causes tension within his family, especially with the domineering father, a real tyrant. This guy is well into his fifties and still lets his father tell him he can't bring a woman home with him as though he were still a teen. Very weird family. The woman is a real loser type who needs a man to feed off of emotionally. They haven't got a chance. Very entertaining film with lots of shrill singing sequences and some good, and at times bizarre, dialogue. Great ending as the camera shows us the perfect couple after the rice has fallen from their hair and then pans over to the other perfect couple cynically revealing history in the process of repeating itself.
