the funniest movie ever made

[miriam_e]

I had a wonderful time yesterday watching What's Up Doc directed by Peter Bogdanovich, starring Barbra Streisand, Ryan O'Neal, and Madeline Kahn, Buck Henry shared writing credits.

I laughed and laughed and laughed till I had tears in my eyes.

I've seen it a few times before on TV, but now I own it on DVD. Yay!!! Also on the DVD are bits of a commentary by Barbra Streisand and a full, wonderful commentary by Peter Bogdanovich. A movie like this is unlikely to be made today... the lack of red tape, the dangerous stunts, the carefree abandon... It supports a suspicion I've long had that the greatness of a project is proportional to the enjoyment had by those creating it.

No. I haven't seen that one. I just now looked it up on imdb.com and it does sound good. I shall keep an eye out for it. Thanks muchly for the pointer. I am always on the lookout for good comedies.
