Subject: RE: BS: Favorite Comedy Films
I'll admit I skimmed the list quickly, but I'm still amazed not to have seen "Young Frankenstein" here. Another I think nobody mentioned (perhaps nobody saw) was "The Mad Adventures of Rabbi Jacob." Danny Kaye, of course: "The Inspector General," "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty," jeez, what were all the rest? I'm glad someone mentioned "My Cousin Vinnie," and recognized it as a great legal thriller as well as a fantastic comedy. Joe Peschi is absolutely outrageous as the night-school lawyer, and Marissa Tomei wonderful as his fiancee. I wish Peschi would do more comedy and fewer Mafia flicks--and the world can do well without any more "Lethal Weapon" schlock.

I liked someone's choice of "Love, Actually." Did anyone say "Sean of the Dead"?
