For anyone who grew up in the 1960s and 70s, “The Odd Couple” is a delicious helping of theatrical comfort food — seeing the slovenly Oscar Madison and neat freak Felix Unger try to successfully (or unsuccessfully) navigate life as roommates is guaranteed to bring a smile.
For anyone whose life didn’t include the 1965 Broadway show, the 1968 movie or the 70s television show, the Neil Simon comedy is still delightfully relevant in its look at male friendships and how we cope with change.
