1971 American film by Jack Lemmon
Kotch is a 1971 American comedy-drama film directed by Jack Lemmon and starring Walter Matthau, Deborah Winters, Felicia Farr (Lemmon's wife), Charles Aidman and Ellen Geer.
Adapted by John Paxton from Katharine Topkins's 1965 novel, the film tells the story of an elderly man who leaves his family rather than go to a nursing home, and strikes up a friendship with a pregnant teenage girl. It is Lemmon's only film behind the camera, and partnered him with friend and frequent co-star Matthau. It was also co-produced by Lemmon's company, Jalem Productions, in co-production with Paxton and Carter's company Brier Productions. Finance came from ABC Pictures.
