This is a Crown International Picture, which produced low budget films normally viewed at drive-ins. In this case this would have been the third feature after "Switch-blade Sisters" and something with "Babysitter" in the title. Val (Karen Black) and Ken (Tony Lo Bianco) are a married couple with one son (Noah Hathaway, the Neverending Story kid). He provides her with everything she could possibly want, but she feels unfulfilled. He drives race cars and is involved in some shady car dealings. She paints naked men.

When Val discovers her husband is having an affair, she has one for spite. They separate, hence the title "Separate Ways". Sybil Danning has a bit part as Mary, the girl who sells hot dogs. Val gets a job as a "Foxy Lady" cocktail waitress working for Jack Carter. The movie is rather lame and pointless, even in 1981. The script has less than B grade and it was sad to see some never actors a part of it.

F-bomb, sex, nudity (Karen Black).
