Skin Deep is a 1989 film written and directed by Blake Edwards.
The movie concerns the romantic life of Zachary 'Zach' Hutton (John Ritter), a brilliant and successful author who has a severe weakness for drink and beautiful women. The opening scene depicts Zach's mistress walking in on him in the process of cheating on her, followed by his wife discovering him with both women. Following the breakup of the relationship with both his wife and mistress, Zach engages in a long period of binge-drinking and seeking solace with a string of women. Most of the comedy is generated by his sarcastic responses to almost everything said to him, and a degree of slapstick. Perhaps the most memorable scene is shot in total darkness, with Zach wearing a luminous condom as he prepares to have sex with another woman. When her boyfriend returns similarly equipped the two men engage in a frantic fight, their attire bouncing crazily across the room being the only visible element.
As his self-destructive behaviour reaches ever-greater heights it begins to dawn on even Zach just how badly off he is, and he seeks to resolve his inner demons and rebuild his relationship with his wife.
