Paternity (Blu-ray)

Screen icon Burt Reynolds (The Longest Yard, Starting Over) brings his magnetism and charm to the role of a would-be bachelor father in this sophisticated comedy. The problem: at 44, having lived a life of swinging singledom and wanting it to stay that way, Buddy Evans (Reynolds) also wants a piece of immortality. He wants a child. The solution? A surrogate mother. No strings, no commitments. A long search unearths an aspiring musician (Beverly D’Angelo, National Lampoon’s Vacation) who agrees to bear his child in return for money to finance her studies in France. Complications? Naturally, and one more hilarious than the next, thanks to the comedic talents of director David Steinberg (The Wrong Guy) and a superb cast filled out by Norman Fell, Paul Dooley, Elizabeth Ashley, Juanita Moore, Peter Billingsley and Lauren Hutton.
