Prisoner of Second (1975) #WarnerArchive #WarnerBros #PrisonerofSecond
In this adaptation of his stage play, Neil Simon captures America's infamous mid-Seventies malaise among the upper middle-class microcosm of Midtown Manhattan. Anne Bancroft and Jack Lemmon star as Edna and Mel Edison, whose existence is upended when Mel loses his job. As the city descends into bankruptcy and chaos around them, Mel bravely fights for his innate right to kvetch as he flirts with having nervous breakdown. Director Melvin Frank (Mr. Blanding Builds His Dream House) lends his gift for family farce while cinematographer Philip Lathrop ( Portnoy's Complaint) captures the Big Apple as it slides from glamour to gritty in a brand-new crystal-clear high definition transfer on Blu-ray.
Special Features: Dinah! Segment Featuring Anne Bancroft and a Gag Reel; Vintage Featurette "The Making of the Prisoner of Second Avenue"; Theatrical Trailer (HD). Also available on DVD! 16x9 Letterbox.
Directed By Melvin Frank
Starring Jack Lemmon, Anne Bancroft, Gene Saks

This is Such an Underrated Movie...One of Bancrofts best performances

I live on 92nd and Second Avenue and I pass the building where this movie was filmed. I love this film because I know what it is to be unemployed and miserable. But Jack makes a terrible situation very funny. However, I did not feel too much of a prisoner of second avenue because I enjoy walking around the city and being free to do what I want. However, the thought of not being employed always seeps back into to head and you are dying to work again. Jack is wonderful in this movie as in all of his films.

I'm a big jack Lemmon fan so this movie is tops on my list but I read Eli Wallach starred in the Broadway play I'd love to see how different he played it I know it wouldn't be better but I'd love to see different perspectives of how each character can be played. I love Neil Simon movies too.

Peter Falk and Lee Grant were the original stars in the original Broadway play.

I think Jack Lemmon is drinking vegetable juice, or V8, from what I can see. Vegetable juice is pretty healthy, and I was always encouraged to drink it, but I think it's very uneasy and uncomfortable to drink, because there's too much acid in it, and it's way too strong of a flavor. It would be a healthy choice to drink vegetable juice with breakfast, but I'd rather choose something mild to start my day with, like a glass of milk or orange juice. People hardly ever talk about vegetable juice anyway, so it's not that much of a concern if you don't drink it. As you can probably guess, I don't like coffee either, because it's too strong of a flavor.

Glad you got the point of the scene.
