A recently-widowed man's son calls a radio talk show in an attempt to find his father a partner.

This 1978 throwaway comedy is an episodic affair obviously inspired by American Graffiti and its multiple-story-line structure. Set during a single night at a disco, there are some nine distinctive, character-driven plots going on, including one featuring Donna Summer as an up-and-coming singer trying to get the club deejay to play her record. Jeff Goldblum and Debra Winger are in the mix, too, and while no one's trying to make history with this film, it is funnier and fresher than most reviewers gave it credit for being. --Tom Keogh

My Best Friend's Wedding

Peter Greenaway (The Cook, the Thief, His Wife and Her Lover, Drowning by Numbers) continues to delight and disturb us with his talent for combining storytelling with optic artistry. The Pillow Book is divided into 10 chapters (consistent with Greenaway's love of numbers and lists) and is shot to be viewed like a book, complete with tantalizing illustrations and footnotes (subtitles) and using television's "screen-in-screen" technology. As a child in Japan, Nagiko's father celebrates her birthday retelling the Japanese creation myth and writing on her flesh in beautiful calligraphy, while her aunt reads a list of "beautiful things" from a 10th-century pillow book. As she gets older, Nagiko (Vivian Wu) looks for a lover with calligraphy skills to continue the annual ritual. She is initially thrilled when she encounters Jerome (Ewan McGregor), a bisexual translator who can speak and write several languages, but soon realizes that although he is a magnificent lover, his penmanship is less than acceptable. When Nagiko dismisses the enamored Jerome, he suggests she use his flesh as the pages which to present her own pillow book. The film, complete with a musical score as international as the languages used in the narration, is visually hypnotic and truly an immense "work of art." --Michele Goodson
