It would be easy to tear the plot to shreds and catch Kramer in the act of copping out. But why? On its own terms, this film is a joy to see, an evening of superb entertainment.

A most delightfully acted and gracefully entertaining film.

rotten:
A wishy-washy, sanctimonious plea for tolerance, directed with Kramer's customary verbosity and stodginess.
