Sensitive, poetic, funny, amusing. Excellent actuation from Walter Matthau. Ossie Davis is good too., 19 February 1999
8/10

A sensitive approach to the "getting old" problem on the big cities. The main character is a modern version of Dom Quixote, who tries to keep his ideas and principles alive assuming to be imaginary people which had more interesting histories than he had on his own life.

The movie is beautiful and amusing. Walter Matthau is splendid.
