It Seemed Like a Good Idea at the Time
Sweeney is a playwright on a career decline. He spends much of his time wheedling money and beer out of his artistic friend Moriarty. One of his few highlights is weekly sex with his ex-wife Georgia. She is remarried to a rich but vile construction developer, but Sweeney and Gorgina are still in love.

The film constructs its comedic drama on the clash between artistic recklessness and adult reality, relying on dialogue rich in self-deprecating wit.
What lingers after the laughter fades is a bittersweet reflection on the perpetual adolescence of the creative soul. — MovieFinder Editorial
