About this product

Product Information

Danny DeVito directs this black comedy about a long-married couple in the throes of divorce at the height of the materialistic 1980s, and his second feature far surpasses his first effort, THROW MOMMA FROM THE TRAIN, in style, substance, and comedic impact. Barbara and Oliver Rose were the perfect couple--he was a prominent Washington lawyer, she had a wildly successful catering business, they had a great house, great art, great cars and great kids. But when Barbara begins to wonder about life without Oliver, she likes what she sees and sues for divorce; unfortunately, neither of them likes the prospect of life without their opulent home, and war is waged to determine who will keep it. The pair become increasingly outlandish in their battle tactics, moving from cunning to cruel to outright surreal, and DeVito's camera echoes this mood with its unorthodox angles and movement. DeVito himself narrates the action as Oliver Rose's lawyer, and Kathleen Turner and Michael Douglas prove once again their chemistry as a passionately antagonistic couple (ROMANCING THE STONE, JEWEL OF THE NILE).

Must read for anyone divorced or married. lol Funny show.
Great show about how you can be so conniving and hateful in nonviolent ways at first., Knowing when to say when. Know that the emotions of love and hate are one as well as the consequences ... of a broken heart. Makes people do things they normally would not do.

Crazy relationship between the main stars!!
I enjoyed this movie but the wife said there were too many unanswered questions!! I've seen this movie previously and like it a lot! True there were questions why Turner wanted a divorce was never answered. But the extremes to which Turner went through to want a divorce was pretty crazy!!

No marriage is perfect.
Not your typical love story. 1989 was a big year for films and this is one of the great ones of that time.
