Like Beatty and Keaton's problematic marriage,
"Town and Country" struggles for commitment. More
than just a few sparkling moments string together
like Christmas tree lights, almost lighting the wires
between.
Essentially, a wacky, klunky, less-than-average
story line about adultery (mainly Beatty's) is scored
with excellent dialogue, then brought to life by
extremely talented actors. Mostly a comedy.
Oh how I enjoy Gary Shandling! And Chuck Heston
rocks in his brief appearances.
