A Movie Masterpiece for Lonely Hearts One cannot say enough about the quality of this movie. The writing, directing, and the screenplay are superb, and the music is beautiful. Jason Robards and Julie Harris are both magnificent in their portrayals of John and Iris. I was so pleasantly surprised by how enjoyable this film was, especially considering the subject being loneliness. Sometimes these types of films can be rather mundane but this one rose above and gave a performance that brought both laughter and tears throughout. I was so impressed with Jason Robards acting that I will be watching this again on Christmas Day in the future. What a wonderful treat to watch. Thank you to whoever had a part in making this movie.
