Movie Review by Andy
April 4th, 2007

Classic!

Baxter(Jack Lemmon) is the every man. Just trying to make something of himself at the insurance company he works, he gives into giving favors to his many bosses. The favors are simply to let them take their girlfriends to his apartment. Nothing much ever seems to come of these favors until one day that favor is asked of him by the main boss(Fred MacMurray). Giving into his boss' demands means that he'll get a big promotion, but it also means that Baxter will have to sit back and watch his boss have an affair with his mistress whom Baxter has fallen ever so much in love with. Who does the girl choose? The ruthless bad guy or the sweet nice guy? Hey, movies are supposed to be escapism right? If so, this is truly beautiful escapism.
