This piece of crap. The writers and actors should be shot. Homophobic humor condones and incites anti-gay violence. If anti-Black slurs had been used in this movie the way anti-gay slurs were, this movie would NEVER have been released. It's THIS kind of anti-gay "culture" that leads to gay teen SUICIDES. It's NOT funny, It's NOT OK. If I ever meet the writers or the cast in person, I swear I will punch them in the face. They deserve to be shot. Let them say all the other slurs, too. Got one for Jews? I do. Got one for Italians? There's one of those, too. How about women? Koreans? Japanese? Indians? Developmentally Disabled? SLURS KILL. And if there is any justice, all the assholes connected with this movie will get theirs, too.

This is yet another Sturges classic. My favorite is the scene with Madame La Jolla, another turn from Sturges regular Esther Howard, a classic comedienne. (She's also my great-aunt, but hey, I'm not biased!) A delightful evening rental.

This is a good short film in the Andy Clyde series. Esther Howard does a fabulous job as his wife, but I'm biased because she's my great-aunt. These short films are fun because they are rarely seen and it's kind of like hidden treasure in American film culture. If you knew Esther Howard or know her work, I'd like to hear from you at kbhmsw@aol.com. Thanks.
