...newlyweds are living in a Greenwich Village loft that looks as if its only previous occupant had been a huge wedge of pie. The bridegroom (Richard Jordan) is the sort of lad who is so taken with the way the light falls on his wife's blue-beaded necklace that he is wearing it. Furthermore, the boy seems to have an excellent chance of remaining in the no-income bracket, his only known assets being far-out light verse, arty photography, folk singing and whacking together his own furniture. Though Fonda's mind and face boggle...
