Hard to believe that the guy in this DVD who plays Schank is currently a candidate for US Senator of Hawaii, but it's true.

This move is full of people who over the years have terrific stories about who they've become since then. Great movie, great director. I heard Brian Evans speaking very well of Robert Shaye on CNN when he was asked about his role in this movie during a political interview with Senator Inouye.

I forgot "Lenny" was in this movie, but he's cool in this. April 30, 2004

This movie really tickles my funny bone and it is definitely on my top ten commedies list (check out the book by William Kotzwinkle... also known as "Jack in the Box"... it is a VERY funny memoir). This movie is definitely worth a rent or buy. It has fantasy moments that are kind of "Scrubs"-like, and it will give the right crowd a serious case of the giggles (and roll around laughs). Sure the movie is predictable, but you won't care. Watch it for the laughs (and universal childhood memories). This movie also features a great true to self performance by John Cameron Mitchell the future writer-director-actor of the awesome cult sensataion "Hedwig and the Angry Inch". This movie is the only movie ever directed by Robert Shaye (who is now the Chairman and Co-Chief Executive Officer of New Line Cinema... he helped to bring us the Lord of the Rings trilogy, the Nightmare on Elm Street Series, and great hits like Frequency).
