Girl Friends
"If I feel like having five men a week, I'll go for
It," says Mitzi. "If I don't feel like it, I won't." Mitzi and her friend Gall are 29, but remain single and fancy-free, unhindered by permanent partners, children and mortgages.
Tonight's film follows Gail and Mitzi on the prowl, observing the unique nature of female bonding. The men come and go, but their friendship remains constant. And while they don't totally reject the traditional idea of settling down to family life, it must remain in the future, while there's still another night on the town to enjoy.
