Plaza Suite

In the first act of PLAZA SUITE, Sam Nash (Matthau) and his wife Karen (Stapleton) are celebrating their anniversary by returning to the suite where they honeymooned 24 years ago. Trying to get her inattentive husband's attention and spruce up their failing marriage, Karen attempts to rekindle the romance that the couple once had while Sam has some secretly seductive plans of his own. In the second vignette, former movie producer, Jesse Kiplinger (Matthau), tries to put the moves on his old flame Muriel Tate (Harris) in true Hollywood fashion. And finally, the third sequence finds Matthau playing Roy Hubley, an anxious father who with his wife Norma (Grant) tries desperately to persuade his nervous daughter to leave the bathroom in which she has locked herself on her much-anticipated wedding day.
