Successful playwright Al Pacino attempts to ply his trade, but his neurotic wife, Tuesday Weld, and her pestering but lovable children, the products of her four marriages, continually interrupt him. Just as the writer is about to complete his first play in two years, Weld takes off to live
with another man, leaving him to manage the children, rehearsals, and Dyan Cannon, his new leading lady in real life and onstage. Israel Horowitz's script fails to develop sympathetic adult characters, leaving the children to give the film whatever charm it may have.
