Something's Gotta Give (2003)
In writer/director Nancy Meyers' romantic comedy,
a tables-turned around film:
- the scene in which 63 year-old Viagra-taking record-company
mogul Harry Sanborn (Jack Nicholson) - who dated younger women
as girlfriends (including young daughter Marin Barry (Amanda Peet))
- announced to her mother Erica (57 year-old Oscar-nominated Diane
Keaton): "I'm dating your daughter, Marin"
- Harry's sudden entrance into a room in a Hamptons
beach house when he came upon a naked and embarrassed Erica, Marin's
mother - a sexy, mid-50s, divorced, successful playwright, and his
half-hearted apology after partially covering his eyes: ("I'm
sorry! I didn't see anything. Except maybe a few tits!")
- his ensuing interest in the more age-appropriate woman
after suffering a mild heart attack
- the sex scene between Erica and Harry (three days
after he suffered a heart attack), when he cut off her white "damn
turtleneck" with a pair of scissors and then offered oral sex,
when she became overwhelmed and exclaimed: ("I think we should
take your blood pressure...I think it's irresponsible not to...120/80...Oh,
my God, I do like sex!...Wow, oh, God! So this is what you're supposed
to do on a rainy afternoon, huh?") - she was amazed by her own
responsiveness: ("I really thought I was sort of closed up for
business. I never expected this")
