The Man Who Loved Women (1983) YIFY - Download Movie TORRENT

"The Man Who Loved Women" is a Blake Edwards production from the writing, producing to the directing of the film. It's not as good as his previous films but has his mark nonetheless.Burt Reynolds stars as David Fowler a successful sculpter who is in analysis with Marianna (Julie Andrews). It seems David is all confused over his art and sex life. She tells his story in flashback following David's somber funeral attended by a bevy of beauties all of whom were apparent past conquests by him.In analysis, David recalls his past life and the women he has known. Beginning with "Legs" (Tracy Vaccaro) he recalls liaisons with eight different women and his relationship with his single mother. The women, Louise (Kim Basinger) a nymphomaniac, Agnes (Marilu Henner) a poor little rich girl, Courtney (Cynthia Sykes) a prostitute he reforms, as well as Nancy (Jennifer Edwards), Janet (Sela Ward), Svetlana (Ellen Bauer), and Enid (Denise Crosby) whom he encounters at various times.David it seems was a love 'em and leave 'em type who could not commit to a long relationship. During an Earth quake, David "discovers" Marianna and begins a relationship with her. He proposes but she doesn't want to sacrifice her career. She goes off to Europe for three weeks and.......................It's a mystery as to why Blake Edwards cast Reynolds in the lead. They had a rocky relationship in the past and apparently didn't get along. I don't think that Andrews was enamored of buddy Burt either. Reynolds seemed out of his element in this role. Gone are the wiseacre asides of "Smokey and the Bandit" only to be replaced by the neurotic David Fowler. It's also hard to imagine him as a world famous artist.There are some funny moments in the film. In particular, Reynolds romp with Kim Basinger the wife of rich Texan Roy (Barry Corbin) where Burt gets trapped in a closet with a dog and a tube of Crazy Glue. Otherwise it's just another tale of the rich, spoiled and famous.

Elegy of a hard-on

Seriocomic portrait of a middle-aged teenager. In the 1960s and 1970s, there were a slate of films about sensitive men who "loved" women. Sad attempts by so-called enlightened men to justify how their raging libidos were not at odds with them being feminists. They weren't womanizers, you see. They just loved women so much they couldn't stop at one. The Reese's peanut butter cups approach to adult relationships. Gene Siskel used to really love these types of films. It did not shock me to learn he gave this film three out of four stars.This is a remake of a 70s film I haven't seen. It already feels like a relic by 1983. Blake Edwards, a director I've never been particularly enamored of outside of Breakfast at Tiffany's, can't seem to decide if we are to take this dreck seriously or not. The film introduces us to our horndog hero, played by Burt Reynolds who at this time was desperate to get away from success and achieve that which all box office stars seek eventually - "to be taken seriously as an AK-TOR!" What follows is an eyerollathon of good looking adults flirting with the finesse of children. There's sex, even some brief nudity from Marilu Henner, but the movie is never sexy. Nor is it fun. It certainly never approaches anything resembling funny. It's a slow, dry exercise in trying to provide sophistication and depth to Andy Hardy. Still, this is Burt before his mid-80s accident that he never fully recovered from. Whatever charms the movie has comes entirely from him.
