in contrast with the previous reviewer i really like this remake. I found it creepier, and actually MORE funny than the Bob Hope version. There's a fantastically catty, vindictive performance by Honor Blackman; Olivia Hussey looks fantastic and i mean what can i say about dreamboat Peter McEnery, (except when he has his mask on that is!) Oh but I'll tell you who steals the show: Wendy Hiller (who else?). Will you permit me a wee bit of pretension?, this is one of the best films I've seen about 'film' itself. The scene around the dinner table with the dinner going on, orchestrated by the 'eccentric' Cyrus. It is a film about control, about money and greed, about 'directing', manipulating, sanity/insanity etc. etc.

Not a bad film ... Read More:

Whether you like it or not, the Jerry Springer Show has had a huge effect on television. This book chronicles his moves from politician, to mayor, to journalist, to talk show host. It also recounts his life history to date and particular stories from his past that are relevant to his show now. In this book, celebrities are quoted and 'behind the scenes' crew members also have their say.
