There's more than one clue that the overall result was cut till it smoked, so the film doesn't reveal what it is until the very end, which is its big saving grace, because it's nothing more than a therapeutic monologue by a middle-aged man who finds a wife, a job, and thus a zest for life. In short, like something out of a magazine. But until then, thankfully the film (perhaps unintentionally) pretty much masks what it's about, still acting as exposition most of the time and involving us with more or less unrelated episodes that have momentum, wit, and are pretty well shot.
