John Cleese shines as only he can

I love British comedies. Especially 'Monty Python'. One of the greatest gifts I ever received is the ‘Monty Python 16 ton set’ of DVDs which I got for my birthday. (My birthday is September 4th just in case you want to send gifts!) And of all the cast of 'Python' John Cleese is my favorite. His manic energy and always "ready-to-explode" personality are hilarious. From 'Monty Python' to 'Fawlty Towers' to 'A Fish Called Wanda' Cleese delivers laughs. Which is why I was so excited to go see this film when it first arrived in Los Angeles in 1986. I never understood why it received so little attention in the U.S. It was a big hit in England, but never caught on here. It should have! Take the time to see this manic comedy that you might have missed.
