3.0 out of 5 stars A Well Done, and Interesting, Tragedy/Comedy, December 18, 2011

This review is from: The Heartbreak Kid (VHS Tape)
This was the original, done a generation ago now; directed by Elaine May, and scripted by Neil Simon. Watching this, as I did after the remake, I was rather more taken with the serious side of the movie; which made this more of a disturbing, and even unpleasant, experience. Charles Grodin was excellent as the two faced husband, but the subject matter naturally is very serious. I would therefore recommend the 2007 remake by the Farrelly brothers, which did much more emphasizing the reasoning of the husband; yet in the end still concluded he was mistaken. So though it has been exceeded, I did yet largely enjoy the older film; and if one was to watch both, I would begin here.
