Elaine May has transplanted the original French gay comedy to South Beach, Miami. (The original is reportedly even funnier, though they both have the same IMDB rating.)
We have the delicious combination of Robin Williams and Nathan Lane, pitted against Gene Hackman and Dianne Wiest, with the children being Dan Futterman and Calista Flockhart.
The second of today's films directed by a theatre director, thus long confident takes and great performances. Also some very elegant camerawork from Emmanuel Lubezki.
And Hank Azaria is great as the very gay maid. With Christine Baranski.
