Dreadful story! This dark drama takes the viewer through the inner struggles of two elderly people as they share their lives during their gin games. As an actual fan of what I refer to as “intelligent drama”, I expected to enjoy this film but the story never came together for me and only managed to be depressing. The roles were masterfully portrayed by Dick Van Dyke and Mary Tyler Moore, but their previous work shadows this film and made their roles seem a little unbelievable. As mentioned by others, the language was terrible and very much “in your face” – definitely more than the characters or the situation warranted. Ridiculously abrupt ending! Definitely better choices out there. *
