Slaughterhouse-Five

Slaughterhouse-Five (1972) more movies like this

directed by George Roy Hill
featuring Michael Sacks, Ron Leibman, Eugene Roche, Sharon Gans, Valerie Perrine

"Billy Pilgrim has come unstuck in time." These opening words of Kurt Vonnegut's famous novel make an effective and short summary of a haunting, funny film. For the screen, director George Roy Hill faithfully renders Vonnegut's black anti-war comedy about Pilgrim (well played in a low key by Michael Sacks), who survives the horrendous 1945 fire ...

Lenny

Lenny (1974) more movies like this

directed by Bob Fosse
featuring Dustin Hoffman, Valerie Perrine, Jan Miner, Stanley Beck, Gary Morton

Adapted by Julian Barry from his own Broadway play, Lenny manages to be both brutally frank and highly romanticized in detailing the short life and career of influential, controversial stand-up comedian Lenny Bruce. The chronology hops, skips and jumps between Lenny (Dustin Hoffman) in his prime and the burned-out, strung-out performer who, in the ...

Agency (1981) more movies like this

directed by George Kaczender

directed by Nancy Walker

Glitz producer Allan Carr tries to cash in on the late-'70s disco boom with Can't Stop the Music -- a film of such Brobdingnagian banality that it almost in itself stopped the disco movement cold. Comedienne Nancy Walker directed this musical chronicle, purporting to relate the legend of the formation of the disco group The Village People. Valerie ...

Water

Water (1986) more movies like this

directed by Dick Clement
featuring Michael Caine, Valerie Perrine, Brenda Vaccaro, Billy Connolly, Leonard Rossiter

Meant to be a parody of the recent invasions of Grenada and the Falkland Islands, this comedy about the laid-back governor (Michael Caine) of "Cascara," a fictional British island somewhere in the Caribbean, and the international parade of characters who come through his territory is a pastiche without a clear center. Among these multinational ...
