What a depressing movie. Good acting, about human beings at some of their worst. Enough to turn me, were I younger and more naive, against marriage, and men.
Having beenreleased in 1982, an interesting aspect of it is to look at where the actors are now. Diane Keaton and Albert Finney are, of course, very successful and renown actors. The girls who played the daughters: Dana Hill, who played the oldest, Sherry, died of diabetes complications at age 32; Viveka Davis, who played Jill, the very cute next oldest, best I can determine was about 10, 11, when she made the film, and has had a lot of work across the years (apparently, though, having made nothing since 2001); Tracey Gold, who played Marianne, already had a number of credits and went on to have many more, including playing on the series "Growing Pains"; and Tina Yothers, who played the youngest daughter, Molly, had a few more roles, and wound up playing Jennifer Keaton in the series "Family Ties" for 7 years.
