The Adventures of Barry McKenzie (1972)
Cracking Film
It's a crying shame that this film is unavailable on video.
It really is a great film, crude yes, broad yes, but really very funny. There's a whole new generation of film goers (admittedly British and Australian, I can't see this garnering a wide US audience) who think Bad taste comedy started with 'There's something about Mary' and it's ilk. This is so much better yet it's being hidden. *sigh*
La Cage aux folles (1978)
sparkling
I first came across this film at about three am when I was idly flicking through the channels.
I fell in love with it immediately.
The underlying thread of sensitivity is often overlooked in the face of the (admittedly often fairly broad) comedy but please, watch it! Watch the original! Watch it more than once! And avoid both the sequels and the American remake like you would a big poisonous spiky thing being guarded by rabid devil dogs wielding machine guns! And as I've now worried myself with my surfeit of exclamation marks I'll stop.
