After a meek New York bookstore assistant (George Segal) calls and rats on a noisy neighbour who is also a prostitute (Barbra Streisand). She knocks on the door and persuades him that she can camp out in his apartment as she has been evicted because he complaied about her. Naturally, they are both at odds with each other and fall in love.
Closely adapted from Bill Manhoff's Broadway play, this is a loud, bawdy and sometimes vulgar farcical comedy and although the pairing of Segal and Streisand are good, surprisingly good, it doesn't quite hit the notes of say a Neil Simon comedy. The film irritate and please in equal measure.
