Just Me and You

Why hasn't this been released on DVD? A unique comedy with loads of belly laughs. Louise Lasser and Charles Grodin are perfect in this little known cult favorite. The writing is brilliant. Two strangers are thrown together in a trek cross country by car. It turns out that each is a lost soul in his/her own way. It's a beautiful, funny adventure that will leave you feeling good for a few days after seeing it. Some of the scenes will haunt you and have you cracking up when you think of them. Two scenes that are classic are: a trip to a drive through restaurant and at the phone booth of a gas station. If you get the chance you should definitely see this. You won't forget it. PLEASE give it to us on DVD.

it's been so long since I seen this I'm delighted to have finally found it on IMDb.

I loved it. Gentle and well executed and very funny. An absolute gem. I don't' know if it's now available on VHS or DVD but I'll be searching for it.

Both Lasser and Grodin work fantastically well together. The two are very well paired and this is an exercise in how to do comedy without 'hamming' it up. Believable set up and funny outcomes. A rather touching love story which in the beginning was unexpected but very satisfying for any romantics watching it. I only wish there were more of these type of movies with such exceptional talents in them. Bravo!

The comic timing in this movie is classic. Only Grodin and Lasser could make this film work. It is funny, and sensitive, and the script is wonderful.

I have a very bad copy - that was probably a bootleg from abroad.

I would love to buy this movie - if anyone has any suggestions.

This has been a huge favorite in our family for years. I remember seeing it premiere on NBC back in '78.

Charles Grodin is the perfect straight man to Louise Lasser's "Crazy Jane" character. These two are complete opposites, but such couples do exist, and in real life they do fall in love, such as the ending to the story. There are several fine moments in the film, but my absolute favorite is the "Drive-thru" scene. This is where Lasser takes over the driving on this cross-country trip, and with Grodin in the passenger seat, decide to get some fast food by going to a Jim Dandy drive-thru. I knew back in '78 when I first saw it that this was a classic moment in TV history, as Lasser, whose character has never order at a "drive-thru" before, asks "Do you have anything diet?"

There isn't any one hysterical moment in the film, but throughout there are some real rib ticklers. Like when Lasser and Grodin have just had a fight, and with Lasser in the back seat with her arms crossed, a radio program is heard in which a super low voiced transexual discusses "her" new dress with a Peter Pan collar. Lasser's giggles are infectious, and soon the two ma ke up. Another highlight is when Lasser and Grodin order breakfast at a Denny's type restaurant, and Jane keeps changing her order with the waitress (Julia Bovasso). Very funny stuff.

Obviously this movie isn't for everyone, but it's a classic amongst its followers.

I caught this movie late night on German television. It had the original American voices replaced with German voices, and I fell in the middle of the movie.

But still it was very entertaining.

It's a good old feel-good movie with funny intelligent dialogs.

Very amusing and thought-provoking to see a grown ICT-guy get to know a fuzzy unstable hippie woman in a pregnancy dress.

entertainment for people who like reading books.

I really want this one on DVD !

cheers.
