Hi,
it's a paean to childishness, after banging the Mommy, he decides he wants the daughter. Tough cookies. That advice...."Think plastics" could have made him rich. At the end of the movie, they're not making plans, or doing anything that would demonstrate they had a relationship. They're just sitting there like lumps. Which demonstrates my point as well as anything else. He wants what he wants when he wants it, no plans,nada.

Toot, toot!
I have to agree with you. A pointless film.

  Agreed it's not the greatest film. For me the film you can watch over and over is not related to great film art, it's about memories of a simpler happier time that is relived when re-watching those films.
