If you're in the mood for a silly comedy that won't strain your mind, you'll enjoy this week's suggestion: 1991's Oscar.-
It stars Sly Stalone as "Snaps" Provolone, a gangster boss (circa 1930s) who promises his dying father he'll give up the racket. Unfortunately for him, circumstances - along with the police, family, his henchmen - conspire against him.
-
It's got a wonderful supporting cast: Tim Curry, Marisa Tomei, Don Ameche, Chazz Palminteri, Kutwood Smith, to name a few.
-
This is a cute, light-hearted comedy in the same vein as Clue. It's directed by John Landis, one of the Clue writers.
-
It isn't quite as good as Clue. But then again, very few are.
