The War Between Men and Women

In a riotous, irreverent comedy-drama that satirizes societal norms, Jack Lemmon stars as Peter Wilson, a sarcastic cartoonist who detests women, dogs, and children, but finds himself unexpectedly smitten with a single mother of three. The film's clever script, based on the writings of James Thurber, seamlessly weaves together humor, pathos, and heartwarming moments, as Peter navigates his unlikely relationship with Terri Kozlenko (Barbara Harris). As their love story unfolds, Lemmon's character must confront his own misanthropy and learn to embrace the complexities of human connection. With its lighthearted tone and witty dialogue, "The War Between Men and Women" is a charming, old-school comedy that still charms audiences today.
