Michael Caine is also great. Alan Alda looks terrific. Walter Matthieu is good also. Neil Simon is so predictable and now he seems so dated. His work seems like fluff. The characters are all light weight. Why did he make buffoons out of the Black group?? He is dated. But still worth revisiting to see how things way back when. Today he would a Jewish writer, because his comedy involves intellectual sparring. Witty is great but slower more meaningful dialogue is better. Jane Fonda with her Ex Alan Alda has no depth just verbal run ons. Yes, it may be clever reparte but that's all. The real authentic mistakes they endured in each others' company is missing.

The death scene with Matt Bomer and Bill Pullman is as a good a death scene that you will ever see. The tenderness and heartbreaking connection is tear jerking. The fact that this is too men makes it more powerful. Men loving each other is the subject of Season three. It is deliberate that Bomer's face is more beautiful than all the women characters. Closer has two men connecting sexually; Jude Law and Clive Owen on a computer exchange, but here deep emotions are evident. The crying later by Bill Pullman takes this viewer into a man's emotions as never before. Nick the character who comes to see his intimate college friend was summoned by Bomer. Why did he start the downward spiral? His wife was about to have their baby and this birth drew him back to the death obsessed times with Nick. After Bomer pulls the emergency brake Nick tells Bomer not to call 911.

Why didn't Bomer say this to Pullman?

Bomer loses his friend and does not recover. His wife couldn't save him. Why did Pullman shoot. He didn't have to. He had no right to shoot.
