jack lemmon be one of the fine actor that have ever grace the screen . he could effortlessly switch from dramatic role to comedic with ease and make most of his peer green with envy . while his performance in save the tiger be oscar worthy and i feel it be give to him a he have miss out on his other opportunity to win the award due to other and good role that have precede this current one . this be also one of those pretentious movie that come out to basically showcase the talent of the cast and or in this case and one particular member . it too bad the screenwriter output do not match that of lemmon . don not waste your time with this one .
