Yay!

Sigh. Was there ever a more perfect uniting of writer and actor than Jack Lemmon and Neil Simon?

You are so right; we own The Odd Couple on DVD.

"You leave me little notes on my pillow. I can't stand little notes on my pillow. 'We're all out of cornflakes. FU.' Took me three hours to figure out 'FU' was Felix Unger!"

Not Neil Simon, but my all time favorite Jack Lemmon is "The Apartment." Good grief, do I love that movie.

For awhile "mashup" trailers were pretty popular- taking a classic movie and cutting together a trailer to make the movie look like something totally different than what it was (showing the power of the editor, for sure). The best one was for "The Shining" but the "Odd Couple" one was pretty good, too:

Matthau on the roof after arguement with Felix looking up at the sky.

Neil Simon's stuff is so great. I loved The Outoftowners and another one I could watch again and again is Barefoot in the Park.
