That's Life! is a 1986 film by Blake Edwards.

The film was made independently by Edwards using largely his own finances and was distributed by Columbia Pictures. Although Columbia released the film, Artisan Entertainment holds the rights to distribute them on DVD.

The film was even shot in Edwards and his wife Julie Andrews' own beachside home in Malibu and features their own family in small roles, including their own two daughters. Jack Lemmon's own son Chris Lemmon plays his character's son Josh, while his wife Felicia Farr puts in a brief cameo appearance as a fortune teller.

Because of the films independent status, many of the cast and crew were paid below union-level wages, resulting in the American Society of Cinematographers in particular picketing the film during production and taking an advert out in Variety in protest. As a result, the film's original Director of Photography, Harry Stradling Jr., was forced to quit the film and was subsequently replaced by Anthony Richmond, a British cinematographer.
