If you loved Boys on the Side, try California Suite
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Herbert Ross, and they sit in Comedy / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Boys on the Side, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What California Suite is
Herbert Ross directs this light entertainment, aiming for a transatlantic, sun-kissed version of Neil Simon's play. Various hotel guests experience a range of comic and dramatic situations. It may not be very good, but it does feature Maggie Smith winning an Oscar.
