SHORT TAKES ADMIT ONE

THE HEARTBREAK KID - You can always get what you want. Our sappy hero decides to shuck the entire “wedded bliss” bit, after 72 hours of marriage, when his bride demands to know in every motel from Long Island to Miami Beach “How was IT?” “Was IT wonderful?” What was wonderful was succulent Cybil Shepard (the proverbial prick teaser) making passes at the bashful bridegroom between the beach blankets and sun tan oil. Godzilla meets Goy, the girl of his dreams. Before you can holler “Hava Nagilah” he has disposed of bride, beachtowel§ and is following Cybil to magic Minnesota. How does this piddling prunehead win the ice maideny hand of the curvacious cover girl and throw over her burly, blond football hero? With a simple con and a lot of crap. Just like the movie. This story has more holes than a bagel factory.
