Two bits of trivia: 1. "Archie Leach" was Cary Grant's real name (Cary Grant was his stage name). 2. The girl that played Portia was John Cleese's real life daughter, Cynthia
Their performances are all outstanding, but Kevin Kline's acting in front of the camera is out of this world. He more than deserves his Oscar. 👏 But why do so many people presenting RUclips movie reactions obviously have a problem with his role as Otto? Almost everyone is disgusted and shocked. If (!) people laugh about/because of Otto, then later. Or not at all. But it's Kevin Kline's brilliance in playing Otto as this unsympathetic character so perfectly that makes Kline's performance so special. 🤩
I really love this movie and the Academy liked it so much that Kevin Kline walked away with an Oscar for his portrayal as the epitome of the "ugly American."
kevin kline won an oscar for his performance. John Cleese and Michael Palin were members of Monty Python's Flying Circus There was a sequel of sorts called Fierce Creatures Portia was played by John Cleese's real life daughter Cynthia Cleese
I *highly* recommend Ruthless People. It is an amazing comedy, sadly forgotten. My personal theory as to why Otto can't drive is that he actually *can* drive, but he's 1) American, and 2) irredeemably stupid, so he hasn't realized that in England they drive on the other side of the road. Kevin Kline won an Oscar for his performance as Otto, by the way.
"Unrealistic amount of air" had never previously factored into my appreciation of the scene. PS "Otto can't drive for..." Mainly, he can't drive on the appropriate (left) side of the road.
The scene where Ken can't say 'The Cathcart Towers Hotel' is in my personal pantheon of the funniest things I've ever seen. My ex wife and I watched it when the movie was on general release; we were down in Devon for her friend's wedding and we decided to go and see it on a whim. When that scene came on I was laughing so hard I couldn't catch my breath, for a minute there I was quite worried!! It's very tightly plotted, just like John Cleese's TV series _Fawlty Towers,_ and IMHO that's what makes it a top-tier movie.
That scene was also the entire reason the movie exists. Cleese and Palin had the idea for the scene, and came up with the rest of the script in order to put it in. It's also the only scene they share together.
Kevin steals every scene as Otto. Just the faces he makes are wonderful. Moments where you can see Otto trying to figure something out are my faves, up there with his 'Italian'. But don't call him stupid!!! 🤣🤣🤣 For more of the fantastic Kevin Kline - Dave (with Sigourney Weaver), In & Out (with Joan Cusack), and Road to El Dorado (animated with songs by Sir Elton John) Not sure how you feel about rom-coms, but he's in a cute one with Meg Ryan - French Kiss
I would also add a great TV production of The Pirates of Penzance he did along with Linda Rondstadt and Angela Lansbury. It's an incredibly over-the-top performance by Kline as the Pirate King. ruclips.net/video/J_6j9dI2pHE/видео.html
At the end i heard mention of Ruthless People being one to come, another of my favourite comedies, i look forward to it. It was mentioned that it stars Danny Devito and Bette Midler, it also stars Judge Reinhold from Beverly Hills Cop.
One of my favorite comedies. You ought to check out a movie called "Soapdish" (1991). It has a great all star cast. It has Kevin Kline, Sally Field, Elizabeth Shue, Whoopi Goldberg, Robert Downey Jr, Carrie Fisher, Cathy Moriarty, and Terri Hatcher. I always put a Fish called Wanda and Soapdish in the same kind of quick paced comedies.
A couple years after this, the same cast made a movie called Fierce Creatures. Not a sequel, they played different characters. I didn't like it as much. It wasn't a critical or commercial success. Another great comedy you might like is Dirty Rotten Scoundrels (1988), with Michael Caine and Steve Martin.
I enjoyed "Fierce Creatures", but I would not classify it as a "companion movie". It's 9 years later and is a totally different story. It's just a new movie with much the same cast.
WELL TTTTTara.sorry Ken but I just couldn`t help myself , my good fella...Kline just kills it ( excusez moi Jamie) , for a Yank...written with such brilliant British & American humor...except for the old Lady`s wee"dags"....that naughty KKKKKen!!!
If you didn’t know, Kevin Kline married Phoebe Cates, from 80’s fame, and Phoebe makes a comeback to acting after taking time off to raise their kids, in the movie “Anniversary Party” with Alan Cummings, Jennifer Beals and Jennifer Jason Leigh. Great film 👍🏾
Nice reaction - I just finished watching Ken offing that lady's pooches in this movie, and then I click to your home page and the video there's titled "DOG LOVER REACTS!" - almost like John Wick's the sequel to Fish Called Wanda lol
There is a kinda of a follow up movie to this one: "Fierce Creatures" Same cast and it's kinda like a reincarnation of the same characters in a different movie.

I saw this twice in the theatres with two entirely different reactions. First was in Fort Lauderdale, Florida where everyone was Monty python fans and VERYTHING clicked and it made me feel like I was watching the best comedy ever filmed. I watched it again in the theatre after returning home to NJ and it barely got a laugh. I personally like this film very much but my experience watching it was so much greater in Florida with a responsive audience.
Because the ketchup was probably congealing with prolonged exposure to the air with the same chips having been used over and over again through multiple takes to maintain continuity.

Most reactors come to this after watching the Monty Python films. It's refreshing to see someone who knows who Kevin Kline is.

Portia was played by John Cleese's real life daughter Cynthia Cleese
Kevin Kline was also the one bright spot in Wild Wild West.
Please do the unofficial companion to this Fierce Creatures. It’s extremely underrated.
Kevin Kline was fantastic in this ,awesome!
Full deserved the Oscar for his performance !
Have you seen the other four nominees?
I *highly* recommend Ruthless People. It is an amazing comedy, sadly forgotten.
My personal theory as to why Otto can't drive is that he actually *can* drive, but he's 1) American, and 2) irredeemably stupid, so he hasn't realized that in England they drive on the other side of the road.

Otto is also incredibly arrogant, so why should he have to change for these limey A-holes? 🤣🤣🤣
The 80s is my favourite film decade, i was born in 1980. Great reaction! This is my 4th favourite movie, and my favourite comedy.
"Unrealistic amount of air" had never previously factored into my appreciation of the scene.

I think Kevin Kline was channeling G. Gordon Liddy. He was brilliant. The villain you love to hate.

Often considered an honorary Python movie.

If you want to see John Cleese, Jamie Lee Curtis, Kevin Kline and Michael Palin together in another great funny movie, I recommend Fierced Creatures.
