Editorial Review:

Amazon.co.uk Review:
Neil Simon's terribly funny play about roommates Oscar the slob and Felix the neurotic was first committed to film in this 1968 production, directed by Gene Saks (Barefoot in the Park). Perfectly timed, ingeniously rendered, not a hair out of place in the history-making performances of Walter Matthau and Jack Lemmon (or the great support cast), The Odd Couple is a movie that one just has to see every two or three years to stay happy. The poker-game sequence in which Oscar's cronies seem to be falling under the sway of fussy Felix's talent for making sandwiches is priceless. --Tom Keogh

With his constant whining (and dusting)he finally drives Oscar crazy.

This comedy duo work so perfectly together that they have you convinced that they really are Oscar and Felix.

Walter Matthau and Jack Lemmon complement each other perfectly in their best ever film - with the exception of Lemmon in Some Like It Hot - and provide exceptional comedy with brilliant subtlety. The start sees Lemmon attempt to kill himself, failing thanks to his friends. Matthau of course offers him a room at his apartment... the fun follows as Lemmon's ... Read More
