Time spent watching films, even crappy ones, is time well-spent.

The Happy Ending (1969)

A bored housewife turns to booze, pills, health clubs, and excessive shopping to distract herself from her empty marriage and wandering husband.  When she disappears to the Bahamas for a desperate getaway, a gigolo talking about his (fake) work utters the words "very sad.  very nothing."  Perfect summation of this movie.
