Review- How to Murder your Wife

Watched this earlier in the week, How to Murder your Wife is very much a product of its times. If you want to see the casual sexism (and to a lesser extent racism) of American culture in the 1960s look no further. Beyond that, the movie has some very funny moments, Jack Lemmon is quite a funny guy, but still not entirely sure what I think of the movie. As an aside, Lemmon's character is a cartoonist who draws the "Bash Brannigan" strip, I cannot help but think that Futurama's Zapp Brannigan is a distant descendant. My Grade: C-/C
