Synopsis:
Mike Nichols’ Carnal Knowledge is a biting portrait of intimacy, friendship, and masculinity across two decades. Following two college friends, played by Jack Nicholson and Art Garfunkel, the film dissects their evolving (and often failing) relationships with women. It’s a darkly comic, emotionally raw character study that remains a landmark of 1970s American cinema.
