Mazursky's witty dialogue and relaxed, nuanced performances keep this flying. Elegant til late rape scene undoes it.
VOR:③
Give or take last act and shaky Venice stuff, as close as early-70s American movies came to nouvelle vague equanimity and wit in matters of sex and conversation. Solid hit for Mazursky.
