And so it went down the drain
11 August 2014
I am always complaining that there are so few movies made for my age group. Well, for " And so it goes" I am the target audience, being the age of Diane Keaton or Michael Douglas.

Boy, did I hate this movie. If Hollywood does not chose to pair a grandfather with a woman of the age of his daughter or grandchild, they take the grandfather and make him a nasty, mean, racist pig and give him a woman his own age who is so desperate that she puts up with anything or anybody. Add to this depressing scenario some really weak attempts of humor like shooting a dog with a paint ball gun or Michael Douglas delivering a black baby or screaming at a little boy for being naked or Diane Keaton drinking out of wine bottle before sex..

This is the second movie I saw Diane Keaton in this role of desperate woman of a certain age putting up with despicable men. It was like watching Something Gotta Give all over again. And I have to say Diane Keaton always looks the same and always acts the same, same thing with Michael Douglas and Jack Nicholson. You never forget one minute that you are watching Diane Keaton, Michael Douglas or Jack Nicholson. I wish I could make millions playing myself.

Before I saw this dog I saw :The Hundred Foot Journey, which was much more enjoyable and the relationship developing in between two people in their sixties was much more believable.
