THE FOUR SEASONS (1981) - Feb. 27, 2006
About three couples who take four vacations over the course of a year (one for each season) this was a pretty good movie. It was exceptionally talky (the four different vacation spots essentially just give the characters four different backgrounds to talk in front of) but essentially entertaining throughout. Alan Alda's direction was bland, but his dialogue was good, though it did seem at times like he was trying a bit to hard to be clever. The performances were good, particularly Alda, and the movie was never really boring, but it would have benefited from a slightly shorter running time. **1/2
