Description
Jack Nicholson stars in this drama from director Bob Rafelson. Robert Dupea (Nicholson) works with his friend Elton (Billy Bush)) on an oil rig in California. Spending his spare time bowling, drinking and sleeping with women, Robert is shocked when his girlfriend Rayette (Karen Black) announces that she is pregnant.
Meeting up with his concert pianist sister Partita (Lois Smith), he learns that their father does not have long to live. Rayette sees Robert in a new light when he reveals that he, too, is a classical pianist, and accompanies him when he decides to return to his family home in Washington. However, things don't go particularly smoothly once in Washington when Robert falls for another woman (Susan Anspach), who is the complete opposite of Rayette.
