Brian... When a newly betrothed stockbroker, a bored housewife, and a lovelorn gourmet cook decide to time-share a Greenwich Village apartment, the stage is set for love, comedy and disaster. Brian McVeigh is a coarse, beer-drinking yuppie who has just moved in with his sophisticated fiancee. But he's reluctant to relinquish the lease on his bachelor pad, the comfortable downtown studio in which he hosts wild rowdy parties for his pals. Instead, Brian shares the apartment with Ellen, a dental hygienist desperate to escape from her provincial husband, and Sam, who's recovering from the emotional wreckage of a recent breakup. Since the trio has never met face to face, they only know one another by their household habits. Inevitably, Ellen confuses Brian for Sam and ends up making the mistake of a lifetime. [More]

Odd romantic comedy. Not great, but watchable.

Even if the movie frequently approximates a television sitcom, it never ceases to charm.
