Just wish the soudtrack was available again. I can only get from the States at nearly £84. I don't mind paying the price because I love the score but the risk of it getting lost en route.
The 2 Neil's were a perfect match! Neil Simon playwrite and music by the great, late, Neil Hefti! Barefoot in the Park is another jewel where their teamwork was magical! Both artists make us feel good and boy, do we need it now!
One of the funniest credit gags used in a film- Gwendylen & Ceycil (the two British birds) have their names reversed with the actresses. No one could ever keep them straight in the movie either!
Excellent my man, excellent! Thanks for posting this response to my vid, great film, great actors, all good. I sound like an old man but they really don't make them like they used to, the last 5 yrs (maybe more) have been terrible in Hollywood. Lucky if there is maybe 1 or 3 descent films a year. Most of them are terrible.
Hey noahf67: ya want rich NYC exteriors?? Key in 'NYPD 1968'. great cop show starring Jack Warden, Frank Converse & Kevin Hooks. Killer opening theme! Also from the same era: 'The Naked City' which I think was filmed in black & white. Totally argee w/you on The Odd Couple. You just feel NY coming off the screen.
I LOVE(!) the pan shot from the platform of the # 7 train when Oscar is at Shea covering the Met game. I would always see that view taking the train into NY from Flushing. ENJOY!
Movie is in my top ten all time, and seeing NYNY back in the late 60's is amazing..
the cars, the neon, the clothes, the atmosphere, so very different from today obviously, so different.

@sdgojdfpghj That's true. I love the pigeon sisters! They were funny, endearing and beautiful at the same time.

One of my favorite movies. Always like Neal Hefti's music. The Odd couple theme is great!
