A repressed, middle-aged divorced U.S. Greek meets a young singer through a dating service and becomes smitten.
Altman biographer Patrick McGilligan says "There is not another movie like it in the Altman canon," and he's not kidding; there is scarcely another movie like it in anyone's canon. The closest I can think of is George Romero's also criminally underrated There's Always Vanilla, which likewise deals with the arc of a romance between "ordinary" people with no touch of Hollywood iconography about them.
A Perfect Couple is conceived in terms of a number of binaries: two families, a rigidly patriarchal Greek family and a rock music collective with its own sort of patriarch; classical music and pop music, which join hands in the climax; a "perfect couple" of two decidedly imperfect, non-glamorous people, and a near-silent "imperfect couple" of two glamour-pusses, whose path repeatedly crosses that of the perfect couple, but in ways that only the audience perceives. (In the image atop the post, the glamour-pusses are on the left, our protagonists on the right.) The perfect couple meets through a video dating service that is a direct precursor to the Internet dating services of our own day; that lends the film an oddly contemporary touch.
