well and this movie be a little pointless . the ending to each sequel aren not shone and the plot themselves except for edith and marie and be a little drastic . can you imagine a beige haired shirley maclaine wonder around her apartment naked reading t. s. elliot while a mediterranean man and a gorgeous blonde scot be sit on the bed and pay more attention to this pixie like artistic woman than the story that she read . a little odd . yes . but shirley pull it off . all these story have a theme love can drive you crazy . there also a story of a rich and spoiled woman ( eve ) who want a stupid dress like no other so she try to blow up the other owner of her dress . then there edith and who love her author husband enough to come out of her bland and unexciting shell into the character that he create . that 15 minute part right there could have be a movie . the doctor and vic tell edith that she crazy but she cry from the roof top im not crazy . im in love . there maria theresa and who come home a day early and catch her friend sleeping with her husband . in out rage she run to hooker to sleep with another man to drive her husband wild with jealousy . marie and fred be two lover who be confuse about life . they decide to make a suicide pact . i be surprise at how cute alan arkin really be when he wasn not in wait until dark . anyhow and they both decide that no love be worth the trouble of shoot each other or whatnot . of course after they finish boffing each other . there jeanne and who be follow with her friend by a mysterious stranger who be only hire to follow her to make sure that she wasn not cheat on her suspicious husband . all of these story be odd and a little loony but see shirley maclaine change so much for each part be delight . she go to every color of hair and every style of look and through every outfit you can imagine . she look great . apart from that and this movie be a little much for kid and well and i do not highly suggest it to anybody other than dedicate shirley maclaine fan . other star represent michael caine appear . he too cute .
