His best-known film, it's the second installment in what Stillman has dubbed his "Doomed Bourgeois in Love Trilogy", preceded by Metropolitan and followed by The Last Days of Disco.In "the last decade of the Cold War", Ted Boynton (Taylor Nichols) is an American businessman working in Spain. He's successful, but he's suffering through a troubled love life and an identity crisis. His cousin Fred Boynton (Chris Eigeman), a naval officer, shows up in town, working as an advance man for the arrival of an American fleet. Together they tour the clubs and restaurants of Barcelona, have heated discussions about women and politics, meet lots of women, and even find themselves wrapped up in politics. | |

Bland-Name Product: Ted thinks he's going to a concert by Jazz legend Lionel Hampton, but it turns out to be a mediocre (fictional) band named Vinyl Hampton. | |

Barcelona / int_8bb8d21f | comment |
Big Budget Beef-Up: Stillman's debut Metropolitan cost $200,000. With the backing of Castle Rock Entertainment, this film had a comparatively-lavish $3 million budget. Compared to its predecessor, it has lots more exterior and daylight scenes, and even tosses in some flashbacks. | |

Book and Switch: Probably the first time that The Bible has been used as the material being hidden. Not wanting anyone to know about his newfound interest in religion, Ted hides a Bible inside a copy of The Economist. | |

Brick Joke: Early in the film, Fred talks about how he changed the direction of the razor when he shaves, based on a TV commercial for a razor. Toward the end, someone else suggests that he's shaving in the wrong direction.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); }) | |
