This film was wonderful! It was so amazing and cool. The window opening sceane was rubbish becuse it was a very old type of joke. The only funny bit was the bit where Walter walks over all the furniture.

Fascinating facts

Walter Matthau – who plays Oscar in The Odd Couple – originally asked the movie’s writer Neil Simon if he could play the part of Felix instead, as he thought that Oscar was too close to his own personality and wouldn’t be enough of a challenge to him as an actor.
