This is a true cult classic that should not be missed. Martin Mull is brilliant, probably his best gig ever. Tommy Smothers is pure genius as the cosmic priest. The script is hilarious, not just in its satire but is quite brilliant as pure comedy. Favourite line: Martin Mull (Holroyd) visits the alternative, counter-culture house-family of wife Tuesday Weld (!) who has gone out on her own to find her true self, moving in with this small suburban communal group. Holroyd is introduced to one of Tuesday Weld's roommates, a woman who calls herself "Woman". Holroyd: "How do you get your mail?" Watchable again and again but for the fact that these bloody VHS tapes wear out so fast. Now into my second copy. When is the DVD coming? Please before the north pole melts!

If you haven't seen this you are missing out on a real gem. It was an underground cult hit upon release, then vanished into obscurity. This is a clever, truly brilliant film and it's a true crime that it hasn't been released on DVD. One of Arkin's best performances, up there with Seven Percent Solution. A bizarre film that can appeal to all fans of Woody Allen films, Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman TV show, etc. One highlight is the reference to the old TV program, Celebrity Bowling, which of course itself was one of the most bizarre things ever to hit TV screens. Worth the price of admission for that joke alone! Attention producers: DVD required asap please!
