Plots(1)
Neil Simon's comedy of mishaps follows a couple as they travel to New York for a job interview. Their plane is forced to land in Philadelphia, they nearly miss a train to NY, which turns out to be standing room only, they arrive in New York in the middle of a mass-transit strike, they have to walk several blocks in the rain to get to their hotel, which has given away their room because of their late arrival. That's where the trouble really begins. A series of comedic disasters follow that might make one think twice before visiting The Big Apple. (Paramount Home Entertainment)
