starring
James Coburn
Shirley MacLaine Sally Kellerman
Evelyn and Walter Kirby are rich and successful Beverley
Hills doctors with the sort of ailment that has no prescribed remedy - a boring, unhealthy marriage. Walter is so preoccupied with his work that his bedside manner makes Evelyn think she's in for a check-up!
Enough is enough and she decides on an extramarital cure of her own. This irreverent romantic comedy makes a sideways diagnosis of the morals of the 1980s and recommends a change of diet.
