Danny DeVito directs and co-stars in this 1989 comedy starring Michael Douglas, Kathleen Turner and Dan Castellaneta based on the novel. This takes place in Washington, D.C. where we meet attorney, Gavin D'Amato (DeVito) who tells the story of ill-fated, married couple, Oliver (Douglas) and Barbara (Turner) Rose to a new client (Castellaneta). He begins with when they first meet to their troubled 18-year marriage ending in a tragic battle over their house. Oliver was a Lawyer, Barbara owned her own catering company and they had 2 children. Douglas, Turner & DeVito are terrific in this and David Newman's score is great as usual. I recommend this great comedy.
