Next-door neighbours John Gustafson and Max Goldman are 'Grumpy Old Men'. And since they're played by Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau, they're also Funny Old Men. The stars of the film the odd couple pair up again in this hilarious and heart-warming story of neighbourhood curmudgeons whose long running feud becomes an all out rivalry when an attractive widow (Ann-Margret) moves into the house across the street.
Snowy Minnesota provides the setting as Max and John unleashes an uproarious blizzard of practical jokes and zingers. Burgess Meredith, Daryl Hannah, Ossie Davis, Kevin Pollak and Buck Henry add star-packed support to snow-packed shenanigans that "will cure your blahs and jump-start your heart" (Rex Reed, New York Observer).
