Audience Member I love the innocent duplicity of Marlo Thomas' Jenny, and think the scene with her parents is truly wry. Alan Alda's character is a bit caustic, but rings true to the times. The story is simple and uncontrived, and I return to this movie periodically for the emotional awakening at the end. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Read all reviews
