Morgan and Larkin date and agree to commit to a platonic marriage based on their intellectual common grounds, without sex. until Larkin leaves before she finishes the class which ends in a commentary about love and sex being the height of the product. Morgan's class was on relationships that are distinctly platonic. She's exactly what he's looking for because when he's engaged in a hot sexual romance with a drop dead gorgeous woman he cannot write he's so distracted by the relationship.
When Larkin shows up and goes to one of her dynamic classes he becomes enthralled with her. Morgan's 'more attractive' sister, eager to pair her sister with someone who she might be compatible with, answers the ad instead, for Morgan. Streisand plays herself way down from the start to look extra frumpy, for the frumpy professor part. Larkin puts an ad in the paper for a platonic cerebral relationship with a woman whose looks don't matter. He can hardly get them to come to class without using threats. Dull science where even his back is turned as he scrawls forumlas on the black board which bore the disengaged students to death. Morgan's is humanities, student interactive and centered, alive, vibrant, and uses everyday examples to stress her points. Professor Gregory Larkin (Jeff Bridges) and Professor Rose Morgan are Columbia professors whose teaching styles couldn't be more different. Streisand (Rose Morgan) casts herself in the lead role.
