Cactus Flower
Cactus Flower begins with 21-year-old Toni Simmons (Goldie Hawn) trudging across the road at night to post a letter. Subsequently, she returns to her apartment and attempts to gas herself using a “second-hand” stove. Fortunately for her, her neighbor, Igor Sullivan (Rick Lenz), smells the smoke and rescues her from imminent death using rescue breathing, which evolves into a French kiss after Toni regains consciousness.The movie then moves to the cause of the suicide attempt. Julian (Walther Matthau), a dentist and philanderer, had previously told Toni that he has a wife and three kids, in order to avoid commitment issues. However, upon learning of the suicide attempt, he decides to rethink his bachelor status and to marry Toni, resulting in him needing a wife to divorce.
