Soup for One

In the 1982 American sex comedy film "Soup for One," director-writer Jonathan Kaufer's desperation to squeeze out a laugh leads to a series of disastrous dating roadblocks for neurotic young cable television producer Allan, who becomes obsessed with finding his perfect match in New York City. With a soundtrack produced by Nile Rodgers and Bernard Edwards of Chic, the film features an unfulfilling narrative about singles life that strains to be funny, often relying on one-liners and parody instead of allowing humor to unfold naturally.
