The acting in this movie is really good.

It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review

This little film certainly is no Acadamy Award winner, but if you were of college age in 1979 and living in the Minneapolis, St Paul, Minnesota area, you will love this film! It has become a time capsule for those of us going to college here in Minnesota during that year.Filmed almost entirely in Minneapolis and St Paul with lots of scenes at the University of Minnesota. Good performances by Gary Busey, Annette O'Toole, Tony Randal as the creepy butler and Eddie Albert as the family patriarch. Romance on Lake Minnetonka with Gary Busey as the underdog trying to win beautiful Annette O'Toole's heart away from the rich villain! A college acquaintance, Beth Bosacker has a small part as Rickie, one of the brides maids. I remember how excited we all were in the fall of 1978 when we learned that someone we knew was cast in this film!!

Back in like 1982, before we had real cable, my dad had a single cable channel! Remember those days they played the same movies for a month and after midnight soft core x rated films. Nonetheless, I saw this film one sat. afternoon. It is absolutely hilarious and I cannot believe more folks have not seen it. If you like the south park guys, this is a good show to see where they learned some of the off color comedy. I have to say that if you like comedy and surprises you should ck. it out. I have been trying to find it recently. I am sure ebay will be a good bet. I have nothing but good things to say regarding this film. Gary Busy's best! Anette O' tooles awesome. I have nothing but great things to say about the Tony Randall character. Also the end lines from his character are classic.

I saw this on cable around 1982, and have fondly remembered it ever since. Very funny! My sister and I cracked up the whole time watching the average-Joe, Gary Busey, try to win the love of rich-girl, Annette O'Toole, and the crazy antics involving the butler. The butler (Tony Randall) was so funny in this movie! Unfortunately, it is not currently available on DVD/video. I sure hope it is re-released soon.

Annette O'Toole and Gary Busey have good chemistry together. The supporting cast adds so much to this movie. One of the supporting roles I haven't seen anyone mention is Michael Talbott as Clay, Wes' (Gary Busey's) best friend. I thought he was very funny, along with John Calvin as the uppity boyfriend, Cloris Leachman, Eddie Albert and Tony Randall. Also, notice the cameo appearance of William H. Macy as the book salesmen who's car is hung by Wes.
