Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus
So the book title is now basically a movie. Garry Shandling is an advanced alien society of men who have no reproductive organs. He is given a mission by Ben Kingsley to impregnate a woman and return to their planet. So Shandling goes to earth with sex on his mind and an attached penis that hums when he gets aroused.
This must be a woman's movie. I didn't find it amusing at all. My mother laughed through the whole thing. This movie operates in two parts. First, Shandling wanting to find a woman and have sex. He finally meets Annette Bening, gets married to her after one date, and has sex. The second part of the movie involves watching Shandling try to ignore his wife as she expecting.
There's also Greg Kinnear, Shandling's co-worker, who has a very beautful wife but is having sex with the cute secretary in the bank vault. And there's John Goodman, whose wife is fat, ugly, and obnoxious, and he ignores her as he investigates Shandling arrival onto earth. Both men are very talented, but this is a thankless roll. Neither really do anything to help the story go along.
Finally, the movie goes on with a politically correct Hollywood way with a message that men need to communicate more with women so we can understand them, and they are not just here to pleasure men sexually.
p.c.
