House Calls Blu-ray brings the charming 1970s romantic comedy starring Walter Matthau to Blu-ray with a new audio commentary. Blending sharp humour with heartfelt observations about relationships later in life, this hit comedy became a standout entry in the decade’s wave of sophisticated adult comedies.
 
Walter Matthau stars as Charley Nichols, a recently widowed surgeon who suddenly finds himself navigating the unpredictable world of modern dating. Determined to enjoy his newfound freedom, Charley jumps from one romantic encounter to another, approaching relationships with the carefree attitude of a middle-aged Casanova.
 
His outlook begins to change when he meets Ann Atkinson (Glenda Jackson), a recently divorced woman whose sharp wit and independence challenge Charley’s casual approach to romance. As their relationship develops, the two discover that love later in life can be just as complicated—and rewarding—as it was the first time around.
 
Directed by Howard Zieff and featuring strong supporting performances from Art Carney and Richard Benjamin, House Calls proved to be a major success and later inspired a popular television sitcom adaptation.
