MY OLD LADY<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cohen Media Group<\/strong><\/p>\n

Reviewed for Shockya by Harvey Karten. Data-based on Rotten Tomatoes<\/strong><\/p>\n

Grade:\u00a0 B<\/strong><\/p>\n

Director:\u00a0 Israel Horovitz<\/strong><\/p>\n

Screenplay:\u00a0 Israel Horovitz<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cast:\u00a0 Kevin Kline, Maggie Smith, Kristin Scott Thomas<\/strong><\/p>\n

Screened at: Review 1, NYC, 8\/28\/14<\/strong><\/p>\n

Opens:\u00a0 September 10, 2914<\/strong><\/p>\n

It\u2019s difficult to believe that Israel Horovitz wrote the screenplay for the 1970 movie \u201cThe Strawberry Statement.\u201d\u00a0 While it\u2019s not unusual for a scripter to have a long, successful life (after all wrote this forty-four years ago and he\u2019s still going strong), but considering that \u201cStrawberry\u201d was a big-budget movie about the late sixties riots at Columbia University, one that showed radical students breaking windows and, I believe, smoking the dean\u2019s cigars, that seems too much in the mainstream for the prolific playwright.\u00a0 Author of over 70 published plays, Horovitz is an institution.\u00a0 Anyone who passes an off-off-Broadway theater in New York\u2019s Greenwich Village notes that his play \u201cLine\u201d which is featured at the 13th Street theater since 1974, is the longest running play ever in Manhattan.\u00a0 Why?\u00a0 It\u2019s an absurdist tome about five people waiting in line for an event.\u00a0 One might wonder whether the theater has only two or four seats for such a non-commercial venture to be such a success.<\/p>\n

Yet in a recent interview, Horovitz stated that his favorite play is \u201cMy Old Lady,\u201d which sound like a good come-on for a movie that is opening September 10th in New York, though I for one would not consider it to be in the same league as such absorbing work as his \u201cThe Indian Wants the Bronx,\u201d a rock-\u2018em, sock-\u2018em action drama about a fellow, Gupta, just arrived from India, who is being teased by two punks while he is waiting for a bus.\u00a0 Rage and violence ensure, making this 1968 one-act job still relevant today.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy Old Lady\u201d does not feature much physical action, and as you watch it on the big screen, you\u2019ll have no problem figuring that it was meant to be played on the stage.\u00a0 It\u2019s essentially a three-hander, with a real-estate agent thrown in, about an unhappy 57-year-old, Mathias \u201cJim\u201d Gold (Kevin Kline) whose dad had died, leaving Mathias with a house in Paris.\u00a0 The trouble is that under French law, since someone had been living there for years, that someone being 92-year-old Mathilde Girard (Maggie Smith), the new owner must wait until the tenant dies before he can assume full title.\u00a0 Yet he is eager to sell the digs since he has no money, having given up his U.S. flat and spending literally his last bucks on the plane trip.<\/p>\n

Carrying all his possessions in a single bag, he is surprised to find Mathile living in the apartment, a tack-sharp elderly woman who allows him to stay over if he would pay rent.\u00a0 What\u2019s more her daughter, Chlo\u00e9 Girard (Kristin Scott Thomas) is underfoot as well.\u00a0 As with many a play, the three characters at first do not get along, but Horovitz is determined to write them a nice resolution, a Hollywood ending, making the playwright and now film scripter apart from the more pessimistic scribes like Samuel Beckett (whom he quotes near the conclusion).<\/p>\n

What Mathias learns shocks him, and I don\u2019t believe a journalist has the right to take away the surprise from the audience by announcing the principal spoiler.\u00a0 Once you get past the plot, you\u2019ve got to admire the performances, because they\u2019re all by pros in the business.\u00a0 Maggie Smith has made a career of playing elderly women for quite a while, never the stereotype biddie who wiles her time playing bingo.\u00a0 Her character have a sharp tongue, as when in one previous work she reveals her distaste for Americans\u2014especially those who take a perfectly good scoop of vanilla ice cream and add whipped cream, a banana and cherries.\u00a0 \u201cAmericans: they vulgarize everything.\u201d\u00a0 And Kevin Kline, whose mere presence can evoke a smile from the audience, runs the gamut of emotions in \u201cMy Old Lady,\u201d from confusion to dismay to suicidal thoughts, to a resolution and happiness.\u00a0 This leaves Kristen Scott Thomas as the protector of her mother, the seductress of a marriage man with children, an unhappy teacher of English who ultimately blossoms under the influence of this strange American.<\/p>\n

Save for a revelation that is not quite believable, there is little melodrama in \u201cMy Old Lady,\u201d just an involving tranche de vie about life and love in the City of Lights.<\/p>\n

Rated PG-13.\u00a0 107 minutes.\u00a0 \u00a9 2014 by Harvey Karten, Member, New York Film Critics Online<\/strong><\/p>\n
