So, 'How to Make a Bed' is quite the interesting watch from 1981. It dives into mid-life crises with a comedic twist, following George, who really seems lost until a fling with a younger woman shakes things up. The performances are a mixed bag, but they bring this odd tension that really suits the theme of infidelity and rediscovery. You can feel the awkwardness in the air, especially when George’s wife decides to play the same game after catching him. The pacing's a bit off at times, wandering around the couple's twists and turns, but it somehow adds to the charm. The practical effects and simple setting ground the comedy, making the absurdity feel oddly relatable. Not exactly high art, but there's something about it that lingers.
