when you get to the scene that involve albert brook without his shirt . try not to gag on a fur ball . i like albert brook . i have see most and if not all of his movie but it be the first time see this one . modern romance be an interesting take on the subject of love . there be few movie that handle the desperation of love as well or as overtly a modern romance and although 1979 chilly scene of winter come very close . they both essentially deal with obsess men that be too psychologically attract or obsess to their respective woman . where a chilly scene of winter border on the subject stalking and this movie have a more grounded foundation with the subject of love because both people be already in a relationship . and out of the relationship . and back in it again . and because it a movie that be release in 1981 and it be of it time in term of style and such . that the main reason i like this movie . my basic rule when it come to movie be if it suck at least it may have some historic relevance and you know time capsule stuff . which lead me to the horrific scene of albert brook sans shirt . the man be hair . very hair . like he wear a black curly fur sweater hairy . and what worse be he almost look burn victim hairy . it not a pleasant sight and the scene with him without a shirt go on and on . back in the early 80 hairy men be see a normal and nothing shocking . but in 2009 the sight of something like this be just plain revolt . sorry and albert . i wish at some point someone say hey let try this scene but with you wear a simple t shirt and i mean you might scare people . it just really bad and i feel sorry for the poor pretty actress that have to deal with albert brook naked body on top of hers . she be probably pull out his hair from her teeth for day after that . anyway and it an ok movie . it could have be good if i hadn not see albert brook without his shirt for what seem like 10 long continuous minute because that will forever taint my viewing of this movie .
