Crazy People (1990) (Ws Sub Dol) Reviews

---

A Light & Funny Film
Crazy People is a classic comedy with it's main focus being simple humor. It's script & characters are so delightful. If you don't want to pay much attention to the plot and just enjoy contagious humor that brings a smile to your face, then this is the film for you!

You have to be nuts to get ahead in advertising
Dudley Moore plays a burnt out ad-exec who suddenly loses his ability to keep from being honest. His most recent ideas (for movies scary enough to [mess] you up, for boxy but safe Volvos, and for the tourism boards of countries a whole lot friendlier than France) are enough to see him committed to an idyllic sanitorium. Meeting with other "crazy people" like him, Moore's character not only fails to curb his new compulsive honesty, but spreads it around, turning the asylum into some new age marketing firm. When Moore's ideas, accidentally published, become unexpected marketing coups, his former colleagues visit his asylum and take creative nods from his newer colleagues, making the new pathological honesty in advertising the rule of thumb (like men buying cars or traveling to exotic destinations only for sexual favors they receive from women they don't know, or buying cigarettes because lung cancer isn't as definate as the great taste). This was a surprisingly fun movie, funny but innocuous. The script gives Moore's supporting cast some definate pathologies, but doesn't make them pitiable or outright laughable. Even if this light film falls out of your head, the sympathy given the "crazy people" will stick with you about as long as the catchy ideas they dream up.
