Angles of the love triangle: Sixtysomething playboy Harry Sanborn (Jack Nicholson) is enjoying the Hamptons with his under-30 girlfriend Marin (Amanda Peet), until he suffers a heart attack. Forced to stay with her mother Erica (Diane Keaton), he soon finds heÂ’s attracted to her too.
Final equation: Marin moves on and things start to go sour between Erica and Harry when she sees him out with another woman. Erica, a playwright, takes her frustrations to the stage and starts seeing a young doctor (Keanu Reeves). Over time, Erica forgives Harry and breaks things off with Dr. Julian and the couple gets married. |
