Kind of watched-listened to #SundayInNewYork and damn it's like the myth of a primitive tribe. I kept thinking of that passage in LeGuin's The Dispossessed where Shevek, the anarchist communist, watches a 60's-style sex farce and how confused he was.

When I find a movie to be terribly sophisticated, adult—"grown-up"—in theme, most others perceive it as quite juvenile! What a predicament!

Jane Fonda and Rod Taylor make #SundayInNewYork work, even 60 years and several sexual revolutions later, because, in Taylor’s words, “They got on like a couple of lovely kids,” and “it was a wonderful, frothy time.” #TCMParty
The misadventures of the libidinous Mona in #SundayInNewYork are equal parts comic and tragic. She’s DTF Cliff Robertson and karma keeps getting in her way. #TCMParty
Mr. Drysdale of TWA New York operations in #SundayInNewYork had a brother in banking in Beverly Hills. #TCMParty
Anyone else find it a bit 👀 that Adam’s girlfriend Mona looks a lot like his sister Eileen? #SundayInNewYork #TCMParty
