...emphasize just how platonic the bond between Norma and Reuben is, Ritt marries her off to Sonny Webster (Beau Bridges), the archtype 'good ole boy.' Handsome but lethargic, this youthful Billy Carter barely peeps while his new bride flies about doing labor organizing with the self-described 'lefto' from Central Park West. Bridges tries valiantly to inject this regional stereotype with credibility but unfortunately, his Sonny comes off like a muscle-bound teddy-bear blessed with the patience of Baptist Mother Theresa. Supposedly a divorced father, Sonny behaves with such liberated understanding that it seems impossible any woman would depart...

He shouts too much, smirks unexplainably, and flounders in an oversized tuxedo like a Bar Mitzvah boy who hates the guests but doesn't want the party to end. For the slurring speed with which he gives half his lines, Schatz may as well be playing Alceste in Moliere's original French. Instead of social comment, the play becomes farce...
