Looking for Mr. Goodbar (7-Jan-1977)
Director: Richard Brooks
REVIEWS Review by anonymous (posted on 26-Jan-2007) Looking for Mr. Goodbar Starring Diane Keaton, et al. Looking for Mr. Goodbar's screenplay was adapted from a book that was a mild cultural phenom. in the early 1970's. The Plot is that Diane Keaton's character is an Elemetary School teacher, that is fairly buttoned up. But upon discovering an ailment is hereditary decides to have a hysterectomy to render herself sterile, so that she may never bring a child into this world so like afflicted. Upon having the burdon of unwanted pregnancy aleved, her fear of casual sex wanes. She delves into a seamy atmosphere of the city's night clubs and all too ready Lounge Lizards. The title is about her search for a meaningful relationship, ...SEX FIRST. Of course, the moral dilema of its day is lost in today's sexual cesspool. She "hooks-up" with several bizarre cameos, and discovers how shallow her lifestyle really has become. When, in a situation, the realization of this truth hits her, she laughs at the absurdity, and is mistaken to have laughed at the prowess of her partner, who then, wigs out, and enacts revenge. After the conclusion of the film, we are left to presume her slutty lifestyle is then presumably splayed before all those who thought she was a quiet, Elementary School teacher.
