Ass-Headed Bottom: Sometimes everything goes right. No, of course not for Dustin Hoffman or Anne Bancroft or anyone I know personally, but for Mike Nichols, sometimes (in fact, aside from fucking Wolf, pretty much all the time). At the precocious age of five, when my brother and I would play my dad's Simon and Garfunkel records, I fell in love with this leg. Watching the movie again the other night, it occurred to me I could just as well have fallen in love with the other leg too. This one's a dark horse for the best American film ever.
