Description:
The great Walter Matthau (The Fortune Cookie, The Bad News Bears, The Odd Couple) gives one of his last performances in Life After Death. Matthau plays Frank, whose wife dies after more than 40 years of marriage. Frank feels lonely, despite the affection and support of his swinging bachelor son Robert (John Stamos). Suddenly romance blossoms for both men: Frank meets Florence (Carol Burnett) at a Hawaiian-themed seniors party, while Robert meets Susan (Teri Polo) on the job. But while Frank is quick to contemplate settling down, Robert is not only leery of commitment for himself, he's not so sure his father should be jumping into a new relationship either. The script of Life After Death is commonplace, but also sincere--and in the hands of old pros like Matthau and Burnett, it plays splendidly. Stamos and Polo have a nice chemistry that gives their scenes some zip. --Bret Fetzer
