Review of Movie Movie

Movie Movie (1978)
8/10
Really funny -- at least as originally released
11 June 2008
Warning: Spoilers
Something to notice in this film: the same SETS are used in the two sub-movies.

And the dialog is just twisted--I'm not surprised it doesn't survive being translated into subtitles:

Boxer, wishing for a second career)"Dese hands are for--readin' BOOKS!".

Can you even say that in Hebrew? I haven't seen the film since its theatrical release. I still remember act 1 scene 1 (after the vintage '42nd Street' New York Street sign establishing context ((also shared by the two sub-movies)) )Scott: "You can put your blouse back on now." Then you find out he was giving the little babe an EYE EXAM! Great stuff!!!
