SECTION HERALD Wednesday IT 1M- Paget Entertainment at his chaotic best in A Fish Called Wanda L ATTHEMOVIEi I II ill J null I i null By Herald Special Monty Python fans take heart Cleese Is bock and hes belter than ever Cleese wrote the script for A Fish Called Wanda and It has all the hallmarks of some of the best Python skits Finally someone is do- tag philosopher Jokes again its been too long since we met Mr and Mrs JeanPaul Sartre on beach Jamie Lee Curtis is Wanda a very sexy very treacherous young woman who Is port of a massive heist scheme The movie opens with the bank robbery and Its fast action split second timing The audience doesnt quite know what to expect after this but it all becomes clear Wandas older lover a repulsive lit tle man called George is the leader he has hired Otto Kevin Kline a weapons expert whom be believes to be Wandas brother to aid him in the robbery The team also Includes Ken Michael a stuttering in dividual with a passion for animals and fish Including a Fish called Wanda The robbery is successful but then the treachery beings Otto reports George to the police George Is arrested and hires Archie Leacn to defend him in court Wanda plays up to Archie so she can find out where double- crossing George has hidden the money Actually Wanda plays up to a lot of men this film Thats tbeplot There is a marvelous running gag with Ken trying to murder a little old lady while Otto spends the movie trying to prevent Wanda from sleep ing with anyone else especially Ar chie Otto Is a thug with a difference he reads philosophy he doesnt understand It but he reads It Wanda Is aroused by foreign languages and Otto speaks Italian to her yes Otto has memorized all the Italian menus be has ever read The movie is witty as well as funny and Otto Is certainly one of the most hilarious bad guys Ive ever seen The real surprise in this movie is Cleese himself though who ever would have pegged Cleese as a romantic lead Geese is marvelous as Archie an Ignored spouse with a daughter and a bared wife When Wanda makes her move Ar chie becomes on impetuous wild romantic hero The love scenes bet ween Cleese and Curtis are terrific There is a real chemistry there its to see Cleese in this new light The whole cast Is delightful Jamie Lee Cuiits Is tremendously sexy and clever Kevfn Kline shows a surpris ing ability to do broad comedy his Otto Is a masterpiece of stupidity and animal cunning la hilarious In his pursuit of a little old lady who has an astonishing ability to survive Otto has bet him a pound he cant kill the woman Is wonderful funny romantic vulnerable and amazed You have to see this movie if you are a Cleese fan it is his best performance yet I enjoyed this movie tremendous ly but I am an old Python fan If you arent a Python aficionado you may not like this However I think that mosl of the Jokes are mainstream and not too obscure I thought this was the funniest movie Ive seen this year Belleville man wins
