About this product
Product Information
In A FISH CALLED WANDA, veteran director Charles Crichton and scriptwriter-star John Cleese create a dazzling quilt from various strands of English and American comedy. The plot, in which four disparate characters attempt a daring heist, comes from Ealing caper comedies, such as Crichton's own THE LAVENDER HILL MOB. Cleese and Michael Palin, as the hit man with a stutter and a love of animals, come from the anarchic tradition of Monty Python. The movie pays savage tribute to another Ealing comedy, THE LADYKILLERS, as Palin attempts to kill a witness to the gang's getaway. The glamorous con woman (Jamie Lee Curtis) is from Preston Sturges's great comedy THE LADY EVE, while Kevin Kline provides his own unique feverish comic intensity.But, in the midst of this breathless comedy, something else happens. The barrister, Archie Leach (Cleese), who is defending one of the gang, is jolted out of his tight-laced British existence by Curtis's life force. And Curtis--like Barbara Stanwyck in THE LADY EVE--falls into her own trap: falling in love with the man she's conning. The 78-year-old Crichton never before had such rich material. He times everything in this brilliant comedy with the precision of a Swiss watch.

- 9***k (441)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchasePerfect, unopened condition, just as described in the ad.

- e***n (32)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThe seller did a very fine job. The book was shipped out quickly (unfortunately the USPS saw fit to counteract that by hauling it from Maine to Colorado, then on a 3-day side excursion to Phoenix Arizona & back to Colorado, before finally getting on toward Oregon - the seller can't control that), safely packed, & in the nice condition described. It's too bad that all of those points are becoming rarer from so many merchants of late. This seller is one of the good ones.Reply from: statelyjanemanor- Feedback replied to by seller statelyjanemanor.- Feedback replied to by seller statelyjanemanor.My heart to you.
