Inspired lunacy, written by star Steve Martin, George Gipe (one of only two) and Reiner (now 94). The line 'Pass the Metzenbaum scissors, and get that cat out of here' is so good it's in it twice. Martin is partnered by Kathleen Turner, clad in a variety of lingerie, and David Warner as the mad professor.
There's something strangely touching about a man who takes his brain rowing, then insanity prevails again as he sticks wax lips on it. Anne Uumellmahaye is voiced by Sissy Spacek.
Shot by Michael Chapman; Polly Platt is one of the production designers.
