That was an excellent one.

... View MoreA film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

... View MoreThere's no question that this is a superior production of "Barefoot in the Park" - I show it to my high school drama class (although, as others have mentioned, all I have is a poor quality video taped from HBO). It is faithful to the script and the acting/comedic timing is superb (particularly Barbara Barrie as Ethel). The pace and energy of Armstrong and Thomas exemplify the joy of live theater - they create a wonderful, wacky momentum that carries the viewer along to the final curtain. I also tell my students to look at the wonderful set design; it's absolutely a delight to see the actors interact with it as if it were another character. If this ever comes out on DVD, somebody please let me know.
... View MoreBetter than the Fonda/Redford version. The actors are funnier and more energetic because the director takes a more light-hearted approach. Bess Armstrong is superb as Corie. HBO should air this again. Why isn't it available on video?!?
... View MoreHaving seen this version, the Redford/Fonda version and having read the play numerous times, I like the characterizations in the TV (Hallmark Hall of Fame)production. Richard Thomas and Hans Conreid were especially notable in their interpretations of their characters. I wish I could get a copy for my library. If anyone knows how I may obtain a copy of this production your input will be greatly appreciated.
... View MoreThis is the first version of "Barefoot in the Park" that I ever saw. I recently saw the Jane Fonda/Robert Redford version. It was okay, but I think that a live stage version, even one on television/video, adds a depth to the production which made this one of my absolutely favorite movies ever.Now if only I could find a video version of it!
