Review of A New Leaf (1971) by Matt H — 09 Jun 2014
Darkly funny, even a little touching at the end. Elaine May is hilarious, and fully commits to her character (never gets a makeover, for example). Her barely audible speech pattern is perfect. Matthau is also hilarious, and plays it just right that you don't utterly hate him.
Matthau really excelled at likable bastards.
