“You’ve heard of a no-win situation, haven’t you? Vietnam? This?” Albert Brooks kicks off his bruisingly hilarious send-up of romance and jealousy with his character dumping his girlfriend (Kathryn Harrold) because he can’t be sure she
didn’t cheat on him. He then spends the rest of the film desperately trying to win her back only to drive her away again. You loathe Brooks’s character in this movie in part because you can’t help but identify with him on some level. Who hasn’t spent a little too much time in their head and convinced themselves that their significant other has cheated on them? The difference here is that he acts on it. Repeatedly. And you wince through every laugh.
