- Genre: Comedy; Romance
- Plot: Neil Simon has a special genius for finding the great hilarity in ordinary people doing everyday things. Like two divorced men who decide to share a New York apartment. That's the premise of The Odd Couple, though there's nothing odd in the casting of two Oscar®-winning talents like Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau. The two veteran funnymen work together with the precision timing of a vaudeville team, but always with bright spontaneity. Lemmon plays fussy Felix, fastidious to a fault. He proves that cleanliness is next to insanity. Mattau is Oscar, who wreaks havoc on a tidy room with the speed and thoroughness of a tornado. An enduring and endearing picture, with the intelligence one usually misses in comedies.; ; Neil Simon possède un talent extraordinaire pour déceler le potentiel humoristique dans le quotidien des gens ordinaires. Par exemple, deux hommes divorcés qui décident de partager un appartement à New York. Ainsi commence Drole de couple, bien qu’il n’y ait rien d’incongru à reunir deux grands acteurs lauréats d’Oscar(MD), Jack Lemmon et Walter Matthau. Ces vétérans de la comédie se donnent la réplique avec l’aplomb d’une équipe de vaudeville, mais toujours empreinte d’une spontanéité éclatante. Lemmon tient le rôle de Felix, tatillon à l’excès, qui prouve que l’obsession de la propreté côtoie la démence. Matthau incarne Oscar, capable de dévaster une pièce ordonnée avec l’élan et l’application d’une tornade. Indémodable et attachant, ce film dénote une intelligence qui fait souvent défaut aux comédies.;
