"A Fish Called Wanda" (1988)
A tale of murder, lust, greed, revenge and seafood! Directed by John Cleese, this comedy tells the story of Wanda, who, with her boyfriend Otto and acquaintances George and Ken, plot the robbery of a diamond collection. However, Wanda and Otto want the stolen diamonds for themselves, and so decide to turn George into the police, not knowing that he has already moved the diamonds to another secret place. Wanda decides the best way to find out where, is by getting close to George's lawyer, Archie Leach.
This is another great movie with some very funny moments. My favourite of which was probably when Otto opens this safe thinking he's got the diamonds, only to realise they're not actually there, and so sort of sits back in shock, shouting "DISAPPOINTED!". I luaghed so much.
John Cleese features in the movie himself, as Archie Leach. All of the cast are very good: Jamie Lee Curtis as Wanda, Kevin Kline as Otto, and Michael Pilan as Ken - all excellent.
If you want a bit of a laugh, then this is definitely worth a watch.
