Description
|
|
|
|
This adaptation of John Cheever's 1953 short story captures with ironic comedy the pathos of middle-aged, educated suburbanites and their families trying to find meaning in their lives. At the age of 40, Cash Bentley (Michael Murphy) confronts his midlife crisis at a neighborhood party by hurdling over his host's furniture, hoping to recapture the athletic prowess that made him a track star in his college days at Yale. Kathryn Walker plays his embarrassed wife, who is unable to halt this obsessive ritual, with which her husband tries to hang on to his fading youth and vigor. Also at the party are Kip and Marcia Lawton (Edward Herrmann and Sigourney Weaver), two characters from Cheever's "The Sorrows of Gin."
