They All Laughed is a 1981 American romantic comedy film directed by Peter Bogdanovich and starring Ben Gazzara, Audrey Hepburn, John Ritter, Colleen Camp, Patti Hansen, and Dorothy Stratten. The film was based on a screenplay by Bogdanovich and Blaine Novak. It takes its name from the George and Ira Gershwin song of the same name.

The film is set in New York City, largely filmed outdoors on the streets, and tells the story of three private detectives investigating two beautiful women for infidelity. The detectives eventually wind up romantically pursuing the women, who turn the tables on them. The film is also a candid look at love and sex in New York City in the early 1980s.

Plot

[edit]

The New York-based private investigation firm Odyssey Detective Agency employs three agents: the middle-aged, womanizing John Russo, the younger, hippie-ish Arthur Brodsky, and the nervy and anxious Charles Rutledge. Their cantankerous boss, Leon Leondopolous, tries to keep his bumbling agents in line while carrying on a poorly-disguised affair with his secretary Amy. Odyssey is investigating two separate married women: Angela Niotes, the aged but glamorous wife of a British tycoon, and Dolores Martin, a beautiful blonde. While attempting to follow Angela from the Manhattan heliport, John meets a taxi driver named Deborah Wilson. The two are instantly infatuated, and John makes plans to see Deborah (whom he calls "Sam") later that night. At the same time, Charles falls for Dolores as he spies on her in the lobby of a hotel. Arthur (who juggles a series of passionate romances throughout the film) is worried for each of his co-workers, but assists each of them in growing closer to their objects of affection: he helps John get away from his on-again off-again partner, country singer Christy Miller, and devises a plan for Charles to have a conversation with Dolores at a roller rink. He learns that Dolores is indeed cheating on her husband with Jose, a playboy with whom she plans to elope.

The next morning, John recounts his tryst with Deborah to Leon; he worries that he has become too old for younger women. Meanwhile, Christy, who has figured out what John has done, decides to get back at him by starting a relationship with Charles. The two head to Midtown, where they run into Dolores at an upscale clothing store. Christy later tries to initiate a sexual encounter with Charles, but he is already too infatuated with Dolores to reciprocate. Meanwhile, John and Arthur track Angela and her young son to a toy store. John confesses who he is, but Angela is not surprised, as she knows that her husband is himself cheating on her. An attraction grows between John and Angela; once again Arthur helps his friend by pretending to be John's son. Deborah runs into Angela and John at the latter's apartment; she does not appear to be bothered by John's simultaneous desire for the two women. Meanwhile, Dolores almost kisses Charles at one of Christy's concerts, while Christy herself confesses her attraction to Jose. When Charles follows Dolores back home, she eventually leaves her apartment and kisses him before running away.

Charles spends the night on a bench outside of Dolores' apartment, following her to a courthouse where Christy observes her and Jose enter a judge's chambers. Christy invites most of the other characters to another concert as Deborah and Angela have a secretive conversation. Later, Angela tells John that she is returning to Europe with her husband and son; she has arranged Deborah to take her place and nurse his broken heart. At the concert, Charles is reunited with Dolores, who reveals that she went to the courthouse to obtain a divorce. He proposes marriage to her (which she accepts). Christy introduces Jose, her fiancé, to the concert's audience. The following day, Charles and Dolores as well as Christy and Jose are married in a double wedding. John tearfully sees Angela off, then returns to his cab, where Deborah is waiting.

Production

[edit]

"The genesis of They All Laughed was that Benny [Gazzara] and I talked a lot about romances and affairs and the battle of the sexes", said Bogdanovich later.[2] "[I wanted] to try to make a personal picture, but not a personal picture like an indie prod. I wanted to hide it, like the old filmmakers in the studio system did. Hide it behind a genre. The genre was private detectives".[2]

The film was financed by a filmmaking division of Time Inc.[3]

"I didn't do any research about detectives", said Bogdanovich. "I never even went into a detective's office, but that didn't matter to me. That's not what it was about, that was just the disguise I hung my hat on."[4]

"Audrey Hepburn's story in the movie is Audrey Hepburn's story in life", said the director. "She was living with a man, her second husband, he was cheating on her, and she basically stayed with him because of the child."[2]

The film was shot on location in New York City during the spring and summer of 1980. Bogdanovich would often write scenes and give them to the actors just before they were shot, to give the film a feeling of freshness.[4]

Country music is prominently featured. According to Bogdanovich, in the first version of the script, the character of Christy was going to be a jazz singer, singing jazz standards, but then:

There was a short, very short, very brief, vogue of country music in New York. About 30 seconds. And so I changed it. I like country music. I fell in love with it on Last Picture Show. In fact, I wrote a couple of country songs. The phrase "One Day Since Yesterday" was something Dorothy said to me in a card. I liked the phrase.[2]

Murder of Dorothy Stratten

[edit]

Dorothy Stratten had begun an affair with Bogdanovich during filming. Paul Snider, her estranged husband and manager, hired a private detective to follow her. They separated and Stratten moved in with Bogdanovich, planning to file for divorce. When Snider was certain he had lost his wife and protégé, he murdered her and then committed suicide. These events were depicted in Bob Fosse's 1983 film Star 80 (where Bogdanovich's counterpart was named Aram Nicholas, played by Roger Rees) and the television film Death of a Centerfold: The Dorothy Stratten Story (1981).

Bogdanovich says Frank Sinatra let him have the rights to several of his songs for a cheap price because Sinatra felt sorry for Bogdanovich after Stratten's murder.[2]

Release

[edit]

Before the film was released, Time shut down its filmmaking division. 20th Century Fox, which retained North American distribution rights, test-marketed the film in Providence, Rhode Island and Minneapolis, but was disappointed with the results and pulled the film's release.[3] Bogdanovich decided to distribute the film himself. His manager later claimed the director spent $5 million, but it made less than $1 million in ticket sales. This contributed to the director declaring bankruptcy in 1985.[5] Bogdanovich:

It was a nightmare. Dorothy was murdered and I went crazy. I decided I would buy the film back from Fox and I lost my shirt distributing it myself which was insanity. Unfortunately, nobody stopped me. So it didn’t get great distribution because you can’t self-distribute. It's impossible. For example, we played 15 weeks at the Music Hall in Beverly Hills. It was a huge success. We got a great theatre in Westwood and it broke all the records, and they pulled it right out because Paramount wanted the theatre for Reds.[2]

Bogdanovich later wrote about the making of the film in the 1984 book The Killing of the Unicorn.

The film premiered at the Venice Film Festival on September 2, 1981, and was later released in theaters in the United States on November 20 of that same year.

Reception

[edit]

On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 50% of 10 critics' reviews are positive.

Legacy

[edit]

They All Laughed was the last theatrical film in which Hepburn played a lead role (she later starred in the television film Love Among Thieves and had a cameo role in Steven Spielberg's Always). According to an interview conducted by Wes Anderson in the DVD features for the film, director Bogdanovich claims Hepburn and Gazzara fell in love and had an affair while shooting Bloodline (1979). Though the affair was short-lived, it inspired the characters they each played in They All Laughed.

Along with Heaven's Gate, Cruising, and One from the Heart, They All Laughed generally is regarded as the end of the New Hollywood period, and the director-driven studio films of the 1970s. Since the very public failures of these four films, Hollywood studios rarely allow directors to control the films they finance.

In 2002 the likes of Quentin Tarantino and Wes Anderson praised the film.[6] The film was released to VHS on January 31, 1995; HBO Home Video released the film to DVD (as a 25th Anniversary Edition) on October 17, 2006. It started streaming on Max in March 2024.

"It was a very loving picture", said Bogdanovich in 2011. "It was the happiest time of my life. I look back on it now and it's been like thirty years or so – it was definitely the high point in my life."[4]

Production

Development

Following the release of his 1979 film Saint Jack, began developing They All Laughed as a centered on modern relationships and the lives of private detectives in . The , co-written with Blaine Novak, drew inspiration from Bogdanovich's personal experiences in the city and classic detective films such as Howard Hawks's (1946), blending elements with a loose, character-driven . Bogdanovich crafted the script specifically for a of friends and collaborators, including , whose character's marital troubles mirrored aspects of the actor's own life at the time. The project was financed by Time-Life Films, a division of , with a of $8.6 million, allowing Bogdanovich to prioritize authentic New York locations over studio sets. Pre-production in late 1979 and early 1980 involved extensive across to capture the city's everyday vibrancy as a "love letter" to its streets and neighborhoods, rather than tourist landmarks. Bogdanovich incorporated contrasting musical elements, such as country-western songs by artists like and , to underscore the film's eclectic tone; for instance, the role originally conceived as a jazz singer for was revised to a country performer for added unconventionality. The character played by also briefly reflected her post-retirement lifestyle, drawing from her real-life transition away from .

Filming

Principal photography for They All Laughed commenced in late spring 1980 and wrapped by early summer, capturing the vibrancy of during a season of warm weather and bustling streets. The production embraced an on-location approach, filming entirely within the city without permits to close roads, relying instead on a small crew of about 10 extras to shield the camera from passersby and maintain continuity amid the urban flow. This guerrilla-style method allowed the film to integrate authentic New York elements, such as taxis navigating traffic and pedestrians in iconic spots like near the , the on West 44th Street, and the Valentino Shoe Shop at 677 . Director adopted a highly improvisational style, often finalizing or rewriting scenes moments before rolling cameras to foster spontaneity and capitalize on the cast's chemistry. Lines were frequently delivered ad-libbed, with dialogue adjusted on the spot to suit performers' natural rhythms—for instance, exchanges between John Ritter's character Charles and Colleen Camp's Christy were honed during rehearsals to highlight Ritter's talents, including improvised pratfalls and awkward encounters that added layers of humor. To enhance realism, the shoot avoided traditional setups like trailers or waiting chairs; actors such as and lingered in nearby shops or salons, emerging only when signaled, which contributed to the film's loose, lived-in authenticity without relying on non-professional extras beyond crowd control. Cinematographer , known for his mastery of , employed handheld cameras to weave dynamically through the city's environments, emphasizing natural illumination from sunlight filtering through skyscrapers and parks to evoke the era's fleeting urban energy. This technique produced a kinetic, intimate visual texture that mirrored the characters' emotional entanglements, with long takes preserving the ensemble's overlapping interactions. In , Bogdanovich edited tightly to the footage shot, incorporating no additional material beyond what was captured on set, ensuring the film's whimsical, interconnected narratives flowed seamlessly without artificial cuts.

Controversy

During the production of They All Laughed, director , then in his early forties, began a romantic affair with 20-year-old co-star , a rising model and actress. Stratten, who had been married to since 1978, separated from him as her relationship with Bogdanovich deepened during filming. On August 14, 1980, Snider murdered Stratten by shooting her in the head at their home before turning the gun on himself in a murder-suicide; the incident occurred shortly after on the film wrapped. Stratten's death at age 20 shocked Hollywood, though all of her scenes had been completed prior to the tragedy, limiting her on-screen presence to key romantic sequences. Bogdanovich was overwhelmed by grief in the wake of Stratten's killing, later describing how it caused him to "lose [his] mind" while pushing forward to finish editing the film as a personal tribute to her. The emotional devastation marked a turning point in his life and work, exacerbating financial strains from the production. Following her death, Stratten received heightened recognition from Playboy, where she had been named Playmate of the Year for 1980 in June, solidifying her status as an emerging icon. In 1988, Bogdanovich married Stratten's younger half-sister, Louise, then 20, in a private ceremony; the controversial union, which lasted until their 2001 divorce, drew tabloid scrutiny and intertwined with Bogdanovich's ongoing career decline in the years after the scandal.

Release

Theatrical Release

The film premiered at the 38th Venice International Film Festival on September 2, 1981, where it served as the opening night selection. Following its international debut, They All Laughed received a in the United States on November 20, 1981, beginning in . A wider domestic rollout commenced on December 18, 1981, expanding to additional markets including . Originally slated for distribution by Time-Life Films, the project faced significant hurdles when Time Inc. dissolved its film division shortly before the release, leaving the movie without a major studio backer. Director subsequently acquired the rights and self-distributed the film through his own company, Moon Pictures, handling bookings in a limited number of theaters. This unconventional approach, combined with negative test screenings at 20th Century Fox (which had briefly held the rights), severely restricted its visibility and contributed to its commercial underperformance against an $8.6 million budget. Marketing efforts centered on Audrey Hepburn's return to leading roles after a six-year hiatus from feature films, positioning the movie as a star-driven to capitalize on her enduring appeal. However, these promotions were overshadowed by the ongoing scandal surrounding the murder of co-star in 1980, which deterred potential distributors and tainted public perception. International releases followed in 1982, beginning with on March 5 and extending to other territories throughout the year, though the film's troubled reputation limited its global reach. Critical panning further hampered its prospects.

Home Media

The film was first made available on home video with a VHS release on January 31, 1995, distributed by Home Video. A DVD edition followed as the 25th Anniversary Edition on October 17, 2006, also from Home Video, featuring audio commentary by director and other supplemental materials. As of 2025, no official Blu-ray release has been issued. In March 2023, the film became available for streaming on Max, fulfilling one of Bogdanovich's final wishes to make the title more accessible after years of complications that had limited its distribution; it was also broadcast on on September 15, 2023. This digital rollout, supported by efforts to clear music during the , has helped revive interest in the film despite ongoing gaps in options. No new physical releases have occurred by November 2025, though the post-2022 streaming availability reflects improved digital quality from archival transfers.

Reception

Initial Response

Upon its release in November 1981, They All Laughed received mixed critical reviews, with praise for its ensemble cast and lighthearted charm tempered by criticisms of its loose structure and lack of cohesion. of described the film as a "witty, liberated sex comedy" directed by from his "apparently still unfinished script," ultimately deeming it an "immodest disaster" due to its aggressive but unpolished approach to comedy and moviemaking. The review aggregator compiled a 50% approval rating based on 10 early reviews, reflecting this divided response among contemporary critics. Variety offered a more favorable take, calling it a "pleasure to spend two hours" with its attractive characters and their amorous entanglements, though it noted the absence of a significant plot in favor of relational dynamics reminiscent of a non-musical . Audience reactions in 1981 mirrored the critical ambivalence, often viewing the film as charming yet scattershot in its execution, with its overlapping stories of and romance evoking a playful but meandering New York vibe. Hepburn's performance as the poised Angela drew particular acclaim for its maturity and discretion, providing a grounding elegance amid the ensemble's antics. However, perceptions were notably influenced by the recent murder of co-star in August 1980, which cast a somber shadow over the film's themes of love and loss; the production was dedicated to her, and a palm-reading scene eerily paralleled her real-life tragedy, contributing to an undercurrent of melancholy in public discourse. The film garnered no major award nominations from bodies like the or Golden Globes, underscoring its limited mainstream traction. It screened as the opening night film at the 1981 out of competition, where won the Award for (tied with Marina Suma for Le Occasioni di Rosa), but overall festival buzz remained subdued. This modest reception contributed to the film's underperformance, grossing under $1 million domestically against a backdrop of mixed word-of-mouth.

Modern Reassessment

In the 2000s, They All Laughed experienced a revival through endorsements from prominent filmmakers, contributing to its growing cult status. , in a 2006 conversation with director marking the film's 25th anniversary, praised its loose, ensemble structure and romantic whimsy as a personal favorite, highlighting its influence on his own work. Similarly, expressed admiration for the film in discussions around the same period, citing its caper-comedy elements as an inspiration for his stylistic choices. On , the film maintains a 50% critics' score based on 10 reviews, while the audience score stands at 52%, reflecting a divide between initial critical dismissal and later viewer appreciation. The 2010s and 2020s saw further reassessment through screenings and posthumous tributes following Bogdanovich's death in January 2022. A notable event at Brooklyn's BAMcinematek featured Bogdanovich in conversation with , where the film's bittersweet charm and New York setting were celebrated as emblematic of the director's personal touch. Post-2022 articles, such as a September 2024 IndieWire piece, positioned They All Laughed as an underrated capstone to the era, emphasizing Bogdanovich's dying wish for wider recognition of its innovative blend of detective tropes and emotional depth. This reevaluation underscores the film's cult appeal, with outlets like noting in 2022 how its initial commercial failure belied a dedicated following drawn to its offbeat humor and star turns. By 2025, the film's availability on Max has enhanced its accessibility, aligning with ongoing scholarly interest in Bogdanovich's oeuvre as a bridge between classical Hollywood and more experimental forms. This streaming presence ties into broader reflections on the director's career arc, from early successes to later personal and artistic challenges.

Legacy

Cultural Impact

They All Laughed exemplifies a melancholic , blending sharp-witted romantic entanglements with underlying themes of desire, infidelity, and emotional loss, which reflect a transitional style between the auteur-focused period and the more intimate, character-driven independent films of the 1980s. The film's loose narrative structure, infused with New York City's vibrant energy and a eclectic soundtrack, captures a sense of whimsical yet poignant urban romance that echoes classic traditions while anticipating the quirky ensemble dynamics of later indie cinema. A key element of its cultural resonance is Audrey Hepburn's performance as Angela Niotes, marking her final leading role in a theatrical feature and providing a graceful coda to her illustrious career. Hepburn's portrayal of a sophisticated yet vulnerable wife under surveillance adds emotional depth to the film's exploration of fleeting connections, cementing They All Laughed as a bittersweet tribute to her screen legacy. The film holds a significant place in Peter Bogdanovich's oeuvre, drawing parallels to his personal experiences with love and loss, particularly through his relationship with co-star , whose character embodies themes of unattainable desire. This autobiographical undercurrent has inspired filmmakers such as , , and , who have praised its ensemble symmetry and heartfelt depiction of romantic folly. Stratten's role further elevated her to pop culture icon status, as her performance in the film—her major cinematic debut—highlighted her ethereal charm amid the tragedy that followed.

This wish was posthumously fulfilled when the film became available for streaming on Max in March 2024, marking its first major platform accessibility in decades. Following Bogdanovich's death, the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) organized the retrospective "Peter Bogdanovich: American Filmmaker" from March 10 to April 6, 2022, which featured They All Laughed alongside other works like The Last Picture Show and Paper Moon to honor his contributions to American cinema. Obituaries and tributes at the time frequently highlighted the film as Bogdanovich's personal favorite, emphasizing its joyful spirit and his deep emotional attachment to it as a reflection of his happiest creative period. In September 2024, an article detailed the resolution of longstanding rights issues that had limited the film's distribution, a process led by Bogdanovich's close collaborators Louise Stratten and Bill Teck in partnership with executive Rebecca Smith; this effort involved tracking down missing music cue sheets and securing permissions for key elements like the "."
