Elaine May

is a triumph of New York Jewish humor and still widely considered to be one of the funniest American movies ever made. Scribed by Neil Simon, Elaine May's made-in-Miami comedy tells the story of sporting-goods salesman Lenny Cantrow (Charles Grodin, in the role that made him a star), who takes his new bride (played to perfection by Elaine May’s real-life daughter Jeannie Berlin) to Miami for their honeymoon. After their disappointing first official night together, Lenny h​​eads to the beach and meets — or, rather, is met by — a determined, gorgeous blonde shiksa goddess wonderfully played by Cybill Shepherd (every Jewish boy’s dream and Jewish wife’s nightmare!). What happens next? Don’t ask!​ (fonte: MJFF)… (mere)
