Given how often people complain that there are no roles for people not "Hollywood Gorgeous" and new love is rarely a plot device for a more mature people , House Calls breaks these rules and proves that the result can be fun to watch. As this suggests this is a cast driven movie and so I give you:
Walter Mathau as Dr. Charles Nichols has the right mix of surgeon's arrogance and a Doctor's sense of duty. Mathau gives us a complex rendition of his usual gruff lovable wrinkled faced dog.
Glenda Jackson is the independent and opinionated Ann Atkson. She is all wiry class and better at sharing the twinkle in her eye than anyone else in the cast.
Back up performances by:
Scene stealing Art Carney as the befuddled and duplicitous Dr. Amos Willoughby
Dumb blonde, arm candy, all grown up and suddenly rich and widowed Candice Azzara as Ellen Grady - this subplot was deftly played out adding much to the fun of this movie
And as a likable best buddy and fellow Doctor, Richard Benjamin as Norman Solomon
Between these skilled performers, a fairly obvious plot and a mostly amusing dialogue, you are encouraged to relax and let it happen. There is no need to make notes or think deeply, just enjoy the craft of acting.
