3.0 out of 5 stars Love Triangle- two's company three's A crowd., July 18, 2000

This review is from: Willie and Phil [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Excellent romantic-comedy directed by Paul Mazursky centering around the free-spirited-relationship's of three people through the un-conventional decade the 70's. Willie a jewish english teacher in New York meet's Phil italian-photographer at a screening of Jules et Jim and strike up a friendship as best buddies until the fateful day the meet Jeanette a young woman down on her luck from Kentucky and she tosses a coin to decide whom to move in with. From their their relationship's intertwine as their destines are interlocked forever. Willie and Jeanette get pregnant and have a baby while Phil move's out West to LA and big success. Willie known to Phil as Mars never seem's to know what he want's and after moving onto a farm for a few years Jeanette's had enough wanting more out of her life she moves to LA with Phil as he trek's of for India and enlightenment. Complication's arise hilariously as Phil's strict Catholic parent's arrive on the scene. Eventually it is the woman between the two men that chart's course into her own direction as neither can decide whom should stay with her. A whimsical if not somewhat nostalgic-look back through the 70's and comic-look at the coming together of two best-frien'ds and the luscious woman they both love. Performances by Michael Ontkean(Willie),Margot Kidder(Jeanette)and Ray Sharkey(Phil).Fleeting cameo by Natalie Wood in scene walking on Phil's beach. Recommended Viewing!

2.0 out of 5 stars Yet another title I purchased in order to see Margot Kidder naked..., March 12, 2008

And she does go skinny-dipping in a lake at one point. Sadly, the rest of the movie concerns Kidder diddling around with two complete putzes / best friends. Very slow moving, and feels like a Lifetime Movie before the Lifetime Network even existed.
