After the ultra sophisticated couple, Bob (a filmmaker) and wife, Carol attend a secluded therapy group (only to observe) they become modernized in their sexual thinking and behavior. Can Bob and Carol's new thinking rub off onto best friends, Ted and Alice? Documentary film-maker Bob Saunders and his wife Carol attend a group therapy session that serves as the backdrop for the opening scenes of the film. Returning to their Los Angeles home, the newly "enlightened" couple chastise their closest friends, Ted and Alice, for not coming to grips with their true feelings. Bob insists that everyone "feel" rather than intellectualize their emotions, and Carol pronounces "that's beautiful" after anyone says anything even remotely personal. Ted and Alice humor their friends, but it is obvious that there is a good-natured sexual tension at work within the foursome.

other title: 奇妙的爱情 / Heirat ausgeschlossen …
Writer-director Paul Mazursky was one of several filmmakers of the 1960s and 1970s to turn his attention to the growing social tensions caused by the liberalization of sex roles and more open attitudes to love and marriage. His explorations of permissive relationship began famously in 1969 with Bob and Carol and Ted and Alice and extended to his most successful film, An Unmarried Woman, in 1978, centering on a newly divorced woman. Between the two, in 1973, he concocted this bittersweet comedy, which features George Segal as a man who falls in love with his ex-wife after she has divorced him for cheating on her. Slyly probing the complexities of contemporary marriage, Mazursky's story is a prime example of the relationship-centered films of the 1970s.
