DVD - Odd Couple - The Centennial Collection
 "Click to view larger image")
Neil Simon has a special genius for finding the great hilarity in ordinary people doing everyday things. Like two divorced men who decide to share a New York apartment. That's the premise of "The Odd Couple", though there's nothing odd in the casting of two Oscar-winning talents like Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau.
The two veteran funnymen work together with the precision timing of a vaudeville tam, but always with bright spontaneity. Lemmon plays fussy Felix, fastidious to a fault. He proves that cleanliness is next to insanity.
Matthau is Oscar, who wreaks havoc on a tidy room with the speed and thoroughness of a tornado. An enduring and endearing picture, with the intelligence one usually misses in comedies.
