British art expert Henderson Dores (Daniel Day-Lewis) loves living in New York City. Someone called about selling a presumed missing Renoir. It's worth $10 million and the commission is a million bucks. Henderson is ordered to retrieve it from southerner Loomis Gage (Harry Dean Stanton).
I've never heard of this one and it comes in between two important Daniel Day-Lewis movies. I don't know of another broad comedic performance from him. He doesn't fit. There are plenty of familiar faces in this. The cast is pretty big and they are all doing something wacky. It's being ridiculous without a lead who could make the comedy work. One can see DDL really trying to act funny. That's different than being funny. He's even getting naked for the comedy.
