I'm pretty sure I have this on laserdisc somewhere, but my player broke years ago. It's supposed to be pretty excellent.
It sure is. It is Toole's best performance this side of Beckett (1964), and probably one of the finest historically/politically literate comedies ever. I don't think I've seen a better movie about class identity.
It's good, but it's something of a long haul at being around 2 1/2 hours. But it's quite funny, surreal, and just plain bizarre.
The best movie. It was on Netflix instant up until recently. I'm sure it'll be back someday, if you pray enough. WAITER I SAY WAITER THERE'S A MUSTACHE IN MY SOUP
That leap from the cross! "Today is my wedding day!" Imagine this happening to George W. Bush.
The whole sequence where he's inducted to the House of Lords is one of my favorite things in film.
