5/10
Made for Each Other-Biographical? **1/2

Warning: Spoilers
Renee Taylor and Joe, I'm full of bologna, star in this film which they both wrote.

What's all the excitement here? Basically, this is the story of 2 born-losers from totally dysfunctional families.

They meet at a group therapy session. There is definite chemistry between them but all hell breaks loose when they go to his house and meet his Italian family.

There is really superb acting here by Olympia Dukakis and Paul Sorvino, as Joe's parents. Outbursts at their table are quite common, but after all, it all seems to boil down to the differences in religion as the two never let go of the fact that Miss Taylor is Jewish.

The scene at the Jewish funeral for Taylor's father was absolutely obnoxious.

The therapy session seasons are comical, but if this is a biography, the two should not have let their dirty laundry out.
