In this remake of Francois Truffaut's French sex farce, Burt Reynolds stars as David Fowler, a successful sculptor whose fast and loose lovelife slams him head-on into a mid-life crisis when his insatiable hunger for women begins to render him socially, artistically, and sexually impotent. His quest to end his losing streak leads him to the couch of attractive psychiatrist Marianna (Julie Andrews), to whom David must explain everything to--beginning with his first sexual encounter--in an attempt to regain control of his life.

  • A Los Angeles playboy renowned for his fast and loose love life runs head on into a mid-life crisisin this uproarious Blake Edwards comedy starring Burt Reynolds and Julie Andrews. David Fowler (Reynolds) has two passions, sculpting and women, and he's been quite successful in both departments until now. David finds that his insatiable hunger for women begins to render him socially, artistically, and, finally, sexually impotent. His desperate inner struggle drives him to the couch of an attractive psychiatrist Marianna (Andrews), to whom David reveals everything from his first sexual encounter to his currently disturbing and often hilarious romantic adventures. But can Marianna help David control his roving eye before it's too late?

    Flat and unsophisticated exposition of one man’s mid-life identity crisis.

    The Man Who Loved Women is not merely a film that hasn’t aged well; it was stale six months after it was released.
