Lennie (Charles Grodin) and Lila (Jeannie Berlin) are newlyweds who embark on what they expect to be the perfect honeymoon in Florida. They are greeted by blue skies, gorgeous beachfront, and a siren in the form of Kelly (Cybill Shepherd), who threatens to distract the impressionable Lennie from the matters at hand. Grodin and Berlin (in an Oscar®-nominated turn) work the perfect comedic anti-chemistry in one of the best-kept secrets of 1970s cinema. Director Elaine May is one of the sharpest satirists of our time, and woefully under-appreciated; The Heartbreak Kid is testament to her cinematic acuity.
