Have changed my mind about something


I can (relunctanly)agree with his feeling he had made a mistake with Lila. She was very annoying, and I wouldn't want to spend "40 or 50 years" with her. However, I also think she was basically a sweet girl who had love to give and with the right guy would have been happy. Lenny was a creep who would not have made her happy. But what I don't agree with is the way he went about it, fliring with another woman on honeymoon, etc. He should have been a man about it and not been so cruel to Lila. I think Lila would have realized later that she was much better off.

But then, delia19461, we wouldn't have had the hilariously brilliant dark comedy that this movie is :)
