...that I don't need to." Nntil she got the part of Brenda she made her living in the pages of Mademoiselle, Harper's Bazaar, and Glamour...
...couldn't make it very clear. Jenny is a poor girl of Italian extraction, on scholarship at Radcliffe. She plays the harpsichord and is pretty much uninterested in everything else, Winthrop House jocks in particular. Brenda Patimkin in Goodbye Columbus was rich and cool about it, but here Oliver is the rich one-only not cool. Poor Oliver is absolutely taken with Jenny, and, eventually, she with him.

...genuinely intimate love scenes, in the comic portrait of Brenda's super-athletic, subhuman brother (Michael Meyers), in the feline mother-daughter skirmishes, Director Larry Peerce (One Potato, Two Potato) has produced some rare moments of high social criticism. But he has an uncertain grasp of his vehicle, and periodically it lurches out of control. At times, Benjamin seems to be playing Dustin Hoffman's gawky second cousin rather than the acrimonious Neil of Roth's story. The film's observations of the nouveau riche Patimkins are subtle enough-until a parody of a Jewish wedding...
