"Same Time, Next Year is a 1978 American romantic comedy-drama film directed by Robert Mulligan. The screenplay by Bernard Slade is based on his 1975 play of the same title. The film stars Alan Alda and Ellen Burstyn. ==Plot synopsis== In 1951, at an inn on the Mendocino County coast, Doris (Ellen Burstyn), a 24-year-old housewife from Oakland, meets George (Alan Alda), a 27-year-old accountant from New Jersey at dinner. They have a sexual tryst, then agree to meet once a year to rekindle the sparks they experienced at their first meeting, despite the fact that both are happily married with six children between them. They discuss their spouses, Harry and Helen. Over the course of the next 26 years, they develop an emotional intimacy deeper than what one would expect to find between two people meeting for a clandestine relationship just once a year. During the time they spend with each other, they discuss births, deaths -including George's son Michael dying in Vietnam, which changes George politically - and the marital problems each experiences at home, while they adapt themselves to the social changes affecting their lives. At their meeting in 1977, George tells Doris that his wife, Helen, died of cancer earlier in the year, and that Helen revealed to a friend that she had known of the affair for ten years, but never told George she knew. Now a widower, George proposes to Doris who refuses to accept because of her loyalty to, and respect for, Harry. Rejected, George leaves for good—but he returns, and they promise to continue the affair as long as they are able. ==Production== The movie is structured as six episodes, each occurring approximately five years apart. Between the scenes are shown a series of photos that depict cultural and political events that had ensued in the years between each segment, such as Harry S. Truman, Nikita Khrushchev, Lucille Ball, Elvis Presley, and John F. Kennedy. The episodes are period-specific, often making references to what was actually happening during the time portrayed. For example, in the segment set in 1966, Doris is caught up in the protest movement at Berkeley, while George takes a Librium and reveals that he'd voted for Barry Goldwater, and later that his son had been killed in Vietnam. Exteriors for the film were shot at the Heritage House Inn, a well-known resort and bed & breakfast in Little River, California, seven miles south of Mendocino, California. The shell of the cottage was built on a temporary foundation overlooking the Pacific Ocean, but the interior was filmed on the Universal Studios sound stage in Los Angeles. After filming was completed, Universal paid for the shell to be relocated to a permanent foundation and the interior was outfitted with the studio furnishings. The cottage became a popular romantic getaway, so popular in fact that the Heritage House eventually partitioned the cottage in half and added a second bathroom to the opposite end. One half of the cottage was called "Same Time" and the other half called "Next Year". The Heritage House closed due to foreclosure in December 2008.Heritage House closing, up for auction The "Same Time, Next Year" cottage still stands, updated and remodeled, and the Heritage House reopened in the Summer of 2013. ==Theme song== Paul McCartney had composed a title song for the film, which he recorded with Wings, that was not used. He later released it as the B-side of a single in 1990. The theme song ultimately used was "The Last Time I Felt Like This," written by Marvin Hamlisch and Alan and Marilyn Bergman and performed by Johnny Mathis and Jane Olivor. ==Critical reception== While Bernard Slade's acclaimed stage play earned a storm of praise, the movie received mixed reviews. Janet Maslin of the New York Times wrote "Mr. Slade's screenplay isn't often funny, and it's full of momentous events that can't be laughed away...As directed by Robert Mulligan...Same Time, Next Year is both less and more than it could have been. By moving the action outdoors once in a while, or into the inn's restaurant, Mr. Mulligan loses the element of claustrophobia that might have taken an audience's mind off the screenplay's troubles. But he substitutes the serenity of a California coastal setting, and gives the film a visual glamour that is mercifully distracting. Mr. Mulligan seems to have been more interested in sprucing up the material than in preserving its absolute integrity, and under the circumstances, his approach makes sense... Mr. Alda isn't terribly playful, and he reads every line as if it were part of a joke, which only accentuates the flatness of the script. Miss Burstyn, on the other hand...brings so much sweetness to Doris's various incarnations that the character very nearly comes to life."New York Times review Variety called the film "a textbook example of how to successfully transport a stage play to the big screen" and added "The production of Bernard Slade's play, sensitively directed by Robert Mulligan, is everything you'd want from this kind of film. And it features two first class performances by Ellen Burstyn and Alan Alda."Variety review ==Awards and honors== *Academy Award for Best Actress (Ellen Burstyn, nominee) *Academy Award for Best Cinematography (Robert Surtees, nominee) *Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay (Bernard Slade, nominee) *Academy Award for Best Original Song ("The Last Time I Felt Like This," nominee) *Golden Globe Award for Best Actress – Motion Picture Musical or Comedy (Burstyn, winner) *Golden Globe Award for Best Actor – Motion Picture Musical or Comedy (Alan Alda, nominee) *Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song (nominee) *Writers Guild of America Award for Best Adapted Screenplay (Slade, nominee) The film is recognized by American Film Institute in these lists: * 2002: AFI's 100 Years...100 Passions – Nominated ==See also== *One Day (2011 film) Film with similar plot. ==ReferencesCategory:1978 films Category:American romantic comedy-drama films Category:American films Category:1970s romantic comedy-drama films Category:Films scored by Marvin Hamlisch Category:American films based on plays Category:Films directed by Robert Mulligan Category:Films featuring a Best Musical or Comedy Actress Golden Globe winning performance Category:Films produced by Walter Mirisch Category:Films set in California Category:Films set in hotels Category:Two-handers Category:Universal Pictures films Category:Adultery in films Category:Films set in 1951 Category:Films set in 1956 Category:Films set in 1961 Category:Films set in 1966 Category:Films set in 1972 Category:Films set in 1977 Category:1978 comedy films Category:1978 drama films "

He retired from the full time appointment in 1974 and was appointed as a professor emeritus, in which role he stayed active until the early 1990s. ==Work== Broudy's philosophical views were based on the tradition of classical realism, dealing with truth, goodness, and beauty. However he was also influenced by the modern philosophies existentialism and instrumentalism. In his textbook Building a Philosophy of Education he has two major ideas that are the main points to his philosophical outlook: The first is truth and the second is universal structures to be found in humanity's struggle for education and the good life. Broudy also studied issues on society's demands on school.

Writing about Schneiderman's work, critic Edward S.

The show won the Omaha Arts and Entertainment Awards and Best Group Show in the group's 8th- and 13th-annual awards. The Museum's most-recent award winning run, from June 1 – September 26, 2018 at Omaha's KANEKO gallery, and was followed by a "pop-up" exhibit at the 2019 &NOW; Festival at the University of Washington, Bothell. ==Media appearances== Schneiderman is featured prominently in the 2019 documentary film The World According to Radiohead, from ARTE TV, where he discusses Radiohead's connection to Noam Chomsky and Naomi Klein.
