The Four Seasons
The Four Seasons is a 1981 American romantic comedy-drama film written and directed by Alan Alda, and stars Alda, Carol Burnett, Len Cariou, Sandy Dennis, Rita Moreno, Jack Weston and Bess Armstrong. It draws its title from the four concerti composed by Antonio Vivaldi. Those compositions, along with others by Vivaldi, constitute the musical score.
Plot
Three middle-class married couples – Jack and Kate Burroughs; Nick and Anne Callan; Danny and Claudia Zimmer – live in New York City and are the best of friends. Jack is a moralistic lawyer, Kate a ''Fortune'' magazine editor, Nick an insurance salesman and estate planner, Anne a housewife and photographer who enjoys taking pictures of vegetables, Danny a cheap dentist who displays symptoms of obsessive-compulsive disorder and hypochondriasis, and Claudia an insensitive Italian painter. Quarterly (in each of the four seasons), the three couples go on vacations planned by Kate.
