Sooo much better than Broadcast News
This is really worth rediscovering – Turner and co really throw themselves into it and (shock) Reeve sends himself up excellently (particularly good in the ‘vertigo in the lift’ scene.As revealed elsewhere, it’s a remake of The Front Page – in fact right now can’t think of a better way to spend a rainy afternoon than a double bill of these two in front of a nice fire 🙂
So – not going to change your life – but I’ll cheer you up.
Love the movie. DVD ???
I really enjoyed this movie.It has been a few years since I saw it but we were watching Superman recently and it made me think about it.
All three of the leads are so good at playing this type of comedy. Sure it is no Oscar material but if that is all you are looking for in a movie then you will not watch many movies.
If you want a good clean fun movie – this is one.
It was nice to see these actors play something different.
Anybody know about this coming out on DVD anytime?
Thanks. John
