The Odd Couple

Felix Ungar, a neurotic, neat freak news writer is thrown out by his wife, and moves in with his friend Oscar Madison, a slovenly sportswriter. Despite Oscar’s problems – careless spending, excessive gambling, a poorly kept house filled with spoiled food – he seems to enjoy life. Felix, however, seems utterly incapable of enjoying anything and only finds purpose in pointing out his own and other people’s mistakes and foibles. Oscar, his closest friend, feels compelled to throw him out a er only a brief time together, though he quickly realizes that Felix has had a positive effect on him.
