Movie talk with a boy named Zombion! Try to get used to it...
(approximately 28 minutes of the film)
Funny farm
I suspect that modern moviegoers are not really familiar with the work of Chevy Chase, but he was a big star in the distant 80s. A huge number of magnificent comedies – the franchise “Vacation”, the dilogy “Fletch”, “Three Amigos” Landis, etc.
By the way, many films with the participation of Chase paid off at the box office, brought revenue. Chase's career began to decline in the mid-90s. Rumor has it that Chevy was hard to work with, constantly scandalized and quarreled with colleagues in the workshop, but he was an excellent comedian.
The Funny Farm came out in 1988. Sports reporter Andy (played by Chase) moves with his wife (Smith-Osborne) from town to a small village to write a novel. It would seem that nature, fresh air, even ducks swim in the pond, a-hee-hee, which can go wrong.
All right, guys, everything. I cracked every five minutes. You should definitely watch The Funny Farm. Wonderful atmosphere. Good and bright movie. Special thanks for the sheriff (who drove around in a taxi, a-hee-hee, because he did not pass on his license) and for the mad postman in a terrible truck.
And how can you not laugh when Chase's hero brought a dog and let it go for a walk? That's what you need to know. I'm not talking about the pay phone in the house. In short, the director George Roy Hill (The Scam, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid) did not fail, gave a damn funny movie with Chevy Chase in the title role.
Yes, “Fun Farm” will not enter the top of the iconic comedies of the 80s (like “Blues Brothers”, for example), but you should not miss it. Cinema for the whole family.
