«Buddy Buddy»
This is a Lemmon-Matthau classic. This rates equal if not better the the grumpy old men flicks. Jack Lemmon is one of the best actors of all time and Matthau is superb as well. I can't understand how this is not available on DVD.

«Really funny!!»
This is one of my favorite Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau movies. It is up there with the Fortune Cookie and other great ones.
Sadly this movie was never released in DVD. It needs to be.
Walter has really acted brilliantly here as a crusty professional assassin who keeps getting fouled up by the incompetent suicide attempter (Jack Lemmon).

«Wilder's Unfunny Farewell»
Do not get the impression that "Buddy Buddy" (1981) is a lost masterpiece. Considering the talent involved, it's a painfully unfunny farce that died a quick death at the box office. Sadly, this was the great Billy Wilder's last film. Better to honor his memory with a screening of "The Apartment" or "Some Like It Hot."
