As college roommates, sexist, sexually aggressive Jonathan (Jack Nicholson) and shy Sandy (Art Garfunkel) share their neuroses, fantasies and the same girlfriend; as the years pass, the two deal with marriage, affairs and their mutual inability to reconcile love and sex. A devastating look at relationship dysfunction featuring career-best performances from Nicholson, Candice Bergen and an Oscar®-nominated Ann-Margret, this film is one of director Mike Nichols' darkest and most psychologically incisive works. DIR/PROD Mike Nichols; SCR Jules Feiffer. U.S., 1971, color, 98 min. RATED R
