A boy who sets out to become a man!Bernard is a very nice boy, but he's only a boy. At least, that's how his mother
means to keep him. Bernard's father has other ideas. He thinks it's time Bernard
grew up-and as everybody knows, the quickest way to grow up is to move
out on your own.
So Bernard finds himself in an eighth-floor walk-up apartment. The whole adult
world lies at his feet. All he has to do is convince somebody to share it with him.
You're A Big Boy Now was Francis Ford Coppola's Master's thesis for the UCLA
Film School. It represents a hilarious, high-speed debut in film comedy for Coppola,
whose previous screenplays and films for Roger Corman had established him as
one of the rising young talents in Hollywood. His later hit The Godfather would
mark the coming-of-age of a new generation of daringly original filmmakers.
Peter Kastner stars as Bernard, whose obsession with adulthood begins the
moment he lays eyes (and little else) upon Barbara Darling (Elizabeth Hartman),
the Greenwich Village temptress who chews up boyfriends for breakfast. Bernard
makes his move-and beyond his wildest expectations, Barbara invites him to
move in with her.
Karen Black makes her own screen debut as Amy, the love object that lovesick
Bernard overlooks. Geraldine Page earned an Academy Award nomination in
the role of Bernard's possessive mother Margery, and Rip Torn and Julie Harris
create the outrageously unny characterizations of Bernard's father, a rare-book
librarian, and his landlady, "Miss Thing"
The pace is sometimes dizzying, and the humor often spills into the surreal -but
and The Lovin' Spoonful, and you've got an entertainment not to be missed.numbers and markings.
