I streamed Heartburn, 1986.

Starring Meryl Streep, Jack Nicholson, Stockard Channing, Jeff Daniels.

It's about the love affair and marriage of Nora Ephon and Carl Bernstein. I enjoyed it, as I did the first time I saw it. Thought there were sweet, funny, and sad moments.

This movie got a some bad press when it came out. I found Ebert's review online and he came down hard on Ephron. Called her mean and said she wrote a bitter movie. He even said she should have written about someone else's marriage. Har! Bitter? (a word never used to describe a man, mind you) The only thing bitter was Ebert's review. Ephron just didn't sugar coat the bad parts of their relationship. Glad I watched it again.

Also, it has "Coming Around Again" and "Itsy Bitsy Spider" sung by Carly Simon:
