I have forgotten the name of a movie I desperately want to see again. It is about a nuthouse. Somehow a connection is made between the nuthouse and a big marketing firm. Next thing you know the nuts in the nuthouse are doing all the concetualzing of marketing plans for big companies. Stars a bunch of B grade 80s Comedians.
Help Please

I bought a Jaguar a couple years after Crazy People came out. Perhaps that movie planted a seed in my subconscious that led to that decision?

Mamamia - yes, that was the ad.

Best moment in the movie:

"I like little boys."

I think my favorite characters were the hello guy and Saab.

Oreb,

Though he did become most famous for playing a lush in Arthur, by the 90s his speech was definitely slurring and he was forgetting his lines. He had trouble getting roles, and most people assumed he had a drinking problem. It turned out that he had a debilitating brain disease that caused these problems.

Dudley Moore was a funny man, fine actor, plus an accomplished jazz and classical pianist. The end of his life was tragic. Just about everyone abandoned him and he became an invalid. I saw an interview on TV that he did towards the end, and it was wrenching.
