Blair was shrill and ditzy as the supposedly irresistible Eileen, but Russell was great as Ruth. Her facial expressions carried the movie. There were a ton of sub-plots going on, one of which was the subway begin constructed under the apartment. At the end of the movie, just as the sisters renew their lease, workers drill up through the floor. Three men climb into the room, and it's the Three Stooges (who had nothing to do with the movie in any other way).
