Though it lacks a third act (more or less), it remains one of the funniest, wisest movies I've ever seen. You can tell that Brooks spent some time working in ad agencies. The scenes set in the agency are so angry they come close to being violent, something just about unknown in Brooks' films. I know I'm in a minority here but I've always thought that even though Brooks doesn't have Woody Allens' large body of work, I think he's a better writer and much shrewder judge of human nature, especially his own. Maybe it's because I could never identify with Allen. Brooks on the other hand could be my twin brother. As many many of our friends have pointed out over the years.
