Synopsis
Based on the play by
Christopher Durang
,
Robert Altman
's Beyond Therapy is a comedy set in New York City but filmed in Paris, where Altman was living at the time. Arrogant Bruce (
Jeff Goldblum
) grows bored with his live-in lover, Bob (
Christopher Guest
), so he looks for a change by placing an ad in the personals. He meets neurotic Prudence (
Julie Hagerty
) at a French restaurant and they prove to be a terrible match-up. Then Bruce goes to see his therapist, Charlotte (
Glenda Jackson
), who has a strange disorder herself. In the same building, Prudence goes to see her own bizarre therapist, Stuart (
Tom Conti
), who believes in sex with his patients. Charlotte and Stuart also have an arrangement where they meet for anonymous sexual trysts. Meanwhile, Bob's mother (Genevieve Page) is worried about her son's relationship with Bruce and she interferes with everything. ~ Andrea LeVasseur, All Movie Guide
