Bye Bye Braverman (1968)
Early one Sunday morning in New York, Morroe Rieff is shocked to learn that his friend Leslie Braverman, a fellow writer and intellectual, is dead. Morroe visits his friend's widow, Inez, and receives the second shock of the day when the supposedly bereaved widow tries to make love to him. Pulling himself together, Morroe prepares to attend the funeral services in Brooklyn with Braverman's three other close friends–Barnet Weiner, who gives up a Sunday in bed with his mistress Myra Mandelbaum; Felix Ottensteen, the oldest of the group; and Holly Levine, the most commercially successful writer of the quartet. Meeting in Greenwich Village, the four friends pile into Holly's Volkswagen, set out for the synagogue, and get lost. An accident with a Negro cab driver almost creates a brawl; but when it is discovered that the cabbie, like themselves, is Jewish, hard feelings mellow into streetcorner philosophizing and drinking. Eventually, the four friends reach the synagogue and dutifully sit through a marathon sermon before realizing they are attending the funeral services of a total stranger. Despite their exhaustion, they continue on until they locate Braverman's gravesite. When Morroe returns home that night and attempts to tell his wife about all the events of the day, he suddenly stops talking and begins to weep
