Prisoner of Second (1975) #WarnerArchive #WarnerBros #PrisonerofSecond
In this adaptation of his stage play, Neil Simon captures America's infamous mid-Seventies malaise among the upper middle-class microcosm of Midtown Manhattan. Anne Bancroft and Jack Lemmon star as Edna and Mel Edison, whose existence is upended when Mel loses his job. As the city descends into bankruptcy and chaos around them, Mel bravely fights for his innate right to kvetch as he flirts with having nervous breakdown. Director Melvin Frank (Mr. Blanding Builds His Dream House) lends his gift for family farce while cinematographer Philip Lathrop ( Portnoy's Complaint) captures the Big Apple as it slides from glamour to gritty in a brand-new crystal-clear high definition transfer on Blu-ray.
