Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaDiana Barrie (Dame Maggie Smith) says that she wishes David Niven could accept her award for her because he would be witty and charming. In the play on which the movie is based, the character says "Michael Caine", but it was changed when Caine was cast as her husband.
- GoofsBill Warren made a 1:30 lunch reservation for him and his ex-wife Hannah. After lunch, some time at the beach, and post-beach freshening up, Hannah says "It's 2:30; do you wanna call Jenny, or shall I?" It wouldn't be possible for all that activity to have taken place in just one hour.
- Quotes
Hannah Warren: You're worse than a hopeless romantic. You're a hopeful one.
- Crazy creditsIn the opening credits, famous 70s artworks of British artist David Hockney are featured. The painting before Elaine May's name is entitled "Portrait of an Artist (Pool with two figures), 1972" and features a swimming pool with the Hollywood hills in the backdrop. The "two figures", both male, one swimming and the other standing over watching have been mysteriously edited out of the picture for some unknown reason.
Review
Featured review
California Suite
Four different groups have various adventures in a high-class Californian Hotel.
Two maliciously witty and typically wisecracking serio-comic episodes (the Fonda-Alda and Smith-Caine duos) are teamed up with two very unsuitable and not really sufficiently executed slapstick ones (the May-Matthau and Cosby-Pryor duos) for an uneven, frequently hilarious, sometimes tiresome and always verbose compromise in this all-star Neil Simon concoction on which closer linking of the stories may have helped. The wordy duel of Oscar-hungry actress Smith and her bisexual husband Caine undoubtedly wins the day.
