- Synopsis:
Georgie Soloway is an unbelievably successful composer of popular music. Just in the last year, he has written over 60 hit songs. That kind of output worries him, however. Now that he is getting to be middle-aged, he wonders if he will be able to keep the pace he has set. He also has a rich crop of neuroses, and his worries go way beyond what might seem reasonable. For instance, Georgie believes that someone named Harry Kellerman sabotaged each of his previous relationships, and he is worried about his current one with Alison a singer. He seeks the aid of his psychiatrist but gets little satisfaction. He then tries to get comfort from his business associates, but they don't have a clue about how to help him. Turning to home, he visits his mother and father but is further distressed when he learns that his father is dying. Still highly agitated, he takes to the air in his private jet.. - Actors:

SELF-DESTRUCTIVE EMPTINESS - Who is Harry Kellerman and Why is He Saying Those Terrible Things About Me? review by Frank Talker™
Amusing movie about a wealthy guy whom, nonetheless, has an emotionally-empty life; leading to years of unsuccessful psychoanalysis.
The narrative contains no explanation for the central characters suicidal despair nor why the Jewish culture from which he emanates has both created his moral wretchedness while also offering no solution to it.
Barbara HARRIS steals the movie in the few scenes that she is in.
