Allen's character finds a younger love (Juliette Lewis). Great performances by Woody, Mia, Judy Davis, Sydney Pollack, Juliette Lewis and Liam Neeson. When Jack and Sally announce that they're splitting up, this comes as a shock to their best friends Gabe and Judy. Maybe mostly because they also are drifting apart and are now being made aware of it. So while Jack and Sally try to go on and meet new people, the marriage of Gabe and Judy gets more and more strained, and they begin to find themselves being attracted to other people.

Quotes:
You use sex to express every emotion except love.

I thought your line was great about, uh, "life doesn't imitate art, it imitates bad television." I mean, it's completely true.
