Boynton Beach Club
February 20, 2008
Recently widowed Marilyn (Brenda Vaccaro), still reeling over the sudden death of her husband, finds an unexpected new circle of friends when she accepts an invitation to join The Boynton Beach Bereavement Club. While not ready to embark on a relationship herself, she is amused to realize that many of her contemporaries are actively looking for love. Lois (Dyan Cannon) is being courted by a younger man (Michael Nouri), while Harry (Joseph Bologna) tries internet dating and encourages his friend Jack (Len Cariou) to pursue a romance with the mysterious Sandy (Sally Kellerman). The Boynton Beach Club proves that 60 IS the new 40 and you’re never too old to fall in love.
Customer Review: I give this love letter of a movie five, count ‘em, five stars.
I don’t give 5 stars to many movies, but it was so nice to see a lot of actors who were “Hot Stuff” in the 70’s, in a movie about life at the age these actors actually are, plus. A little trivia-Did you know for a while the only reason Dyan Cannon was known was she married Cary Grant, (who?), one of the best looking actors of his era, and had his baby, Brenda Vacarro and Barbara Streisand went to High School together. Not as good as “Queen of the Stardust Ballroom”, but very well done and Brenda, Sally and Dyan show that they still have “It”, but, it’s just lower than it used to be. Enjoy!
Customer Review: Can Senior Citizens Have a Love Life?
A rather cute little film about seniors and problems they encounter, especially the grieving process. When a lifetime partner dies, what are the chances for finding love again? Not too interesting for the younger generation. Buy from here…
