4/10
Dire comedy
5 December 2005
Given the writers of this film you would expect a witty and literate farce.Unfortunately what we get is exactly the opposite.This film seems to have been made on the assumption that the louder and quicker the actors speak the funnier they are.This film was so poor that it sent me off to sleep.The only watchable aspect of this film was the supporting cast.Funny how Franklin Pangbourne is only on screen for a few minutes but he is my only abiding memory of this film.Edward Everett Horton and Zasu Pitts are exempt from any criticism but even they are not able to make this film watchable.Maybe the fact that this film is only 65 minutes long is a clue as to why the main characters perform in such a hyped up manner.
