Is America ready for the Heartbreak Kid?

Shallow sporting goods salesman Lenny Cantrow (Charles Grodin) thought he'd found the woman he wanted after his swift courtship of Lila Kolodny (Jeannie Berlin). That lasted until their Miami Beach honeymoon, where he caught sight of vacationing college beauty Kelly Corcoran (Cybill Shepherd), and immediately blew up his marriage to pursue her. 

Elaine May's classic dark rom-com, adapted by Neil Simon from a Bruce Jay Friedman story, also stars Eddie Albert, Audra Lindley, and Doris Roberts.
