Babylon is a NYC suburb and a total eclipse is on the way at noon. Thus the stage is set for a slice of life centering on schoolteacher Sue (Barbara Barrie); her daughter, Judy (Edie Falco); the school principal, Arthur (Bob Dishy); his wife, Alice (Madeline Kahn); and their son, David (Aaron Harnick). David has just returned from a failed effort as a movie director in Hollywood and meets an old high-school classmate, Judy, an aspiring actress about to leave town to make it big. Meanwhile, Sue and Arthur start an affair while depressed, whining Alice ponders life. Though all of the characters have problems, the film works well as a fine mood piece, much of which takes place in the semi-darkness of the eclipse. Remarkable black and white photography, and the last film appearance by the late Madeline Kahn.
