Brief synopsis of Micki and Maude

Dudley Moore stars in Blake Edwards's amiable farce about a man whose eagerness to become a father creates problems. Rob Salinger (Moore) is a television reporter married to Micki (Ann Reinking), a rising assistant district attorney. Demanding careers have made it difficult for the couple to have children, and although Rob feels time is running short, Micki wants to wait a bit longer before becoming a parent. While doing an interview, Rob meets cellist Maude (Amy Irving), and when his wife goes out of town, he begins dating her. Shortly thereafter, Maude announces that she's pregnant, and Rob promises to marry her and divorce Micki. Before he can break the news to his wife, she joyfully proclaims her own pregancy, curtailing his revelation and putting him in an even worse fix. His solution: Become a bigamist.

Rating of 1 stars out of 4 Halliwell's Film Guide

Wild and overlong farce with some undeniably funnier scenes than have been noted in the participants' work for some years.
