Review: SAME TIME, NEXT YEAR at Players Circle Theater
Is it possible to be in love with two people at the same time? Is cheating on one’s spouse ever acceptable? Can physical intimacy exist without emotional intimacy?
Same Time, Next Year on Video – 1978
Bernard Slade's smart, funny, and touching play about an adulterous couple who meet one weekend a year for 26 years is nicely adapted for the screen by Robert Mulligan (To Kill a Mockingbird) in this 1978 film. The two-person story stars Alan Alda and Ellen Burstyn, both of whom are outstanding at conveying a rainbow of emotions over a quarter-century as life gives and takes away, and the world convulses with change. Mulligan brings taste and honesty to the film, and Alda and Burstyn give full, living performances. (Tom Keogh for Amazon.com)
