Paul, Lisa and Caroline

About This Movie

So, 'Paul, Lisa and Caroline' is this quirky little comedy from '77 that captures the chaotic nature of love and relationships in a really interesting way. The tension between Paul, the older ad director, and his younger wife Caroline, played by Gena Lee, creates this unexpected dynamic, especially when Lisa, the ex, comes back into the picture. It’s not just about the romantic entanglements; there's a kind of introspection about aging and creativity. The performances are pretty solid, with Diane Miller’s Lisa being particularly engaging, balancing humor and pathos. The pacing feels deliberate but smooth, drawing you into the characters’ complexities and their evolving relationships. And honestly, it's the kind of film that often flies under the radar, making it a hidden gem for collectors who appreciate character-driven stories.

This film has had a somewhat limited release history, which contributes to its scarcity among collectors. Originally released on VHS, it has seen a few DVD editions but remains underappreciated in the digital age. Interest tends to peak around discussions of 1970s comedies, and finding a clean copy can be a challenge, adding a layer of intrigue for those who enjoy unearthing lesser-known titles.
