Sorry, a lot of people praised this movie like it was a terrific film.  It did have a good cast, although I didn't find Art Garfunkel a very good actor.  The story was suppose to be about the thoughts of two friends from college thru the next 20 years.  The story was slow, dialogue was dull and the go nowhere depressing story just left you hanging.  You can't not mention the acting of Nicholson, Candice Bergen and Ann-Margaret, but that didn't help the film.  Entertaining and interesting to the audience are two things that some directors overlook in trying to show you how brilliant they think they are.  Here's drama - accept it, it's brilliant.  My thought - No!  It's Not!  And I didn't Enjoy it!
