Did Turan and I see the same movie? I have no problems with interracial dating, but watching the “genuinely in love” pair of Flipper and Angie was like watching someone play tennis in a pair of Stacy Adams.
And why didn’t Lee bother to make Flipper’s architect more credible?
In scenes of his professional life, we only see him fornicating on his desk and later insisting on being made a partner in his firm. We never see his work or get a clue as to how hard or how much he worked.
