Kiss Me Goodbye - 1982 - 6/10

Mild-mannered remake of Jorge Amado’s “Dona Flor and Her Two Husbands” (a very saucy novel).
Kay’s troublesome husband, Jolly, is dead, except he won’t stay dead.
Even while she prepares to remarry, Jolly keeps haunting her.
So much so, she is constantly confusing the two husbands, responding wrongly to questions.
Watching, this is often funny, especially if you view in a library or revival theater with an audience.
The spark is diminished at home, and this comes across as a bland sitcom.
James Caan steals the film, while Sally Field and Jeff Bridges lack chemistry.
