I noted something pretty funny while watching the first few minutes of this movie - during Chevy Chase driving scenes he always has the same expression on his face. Meaning, in all of his movies where he's being that funny dad driving somewhere. You should know the expression...a forced grin, chin up...unfazed by the world around him. Goofy almost. That had me chuckling fo sure. I enjoyed the movie too. I've said this before, but good old time comedies sure are hard to come by. There are only so many actors that can pull acting off like this, the great ones. This makes me want to see Spies Like Us and others that I've never yet seen...perhaps Canadian Bacon?? Maybe that's too far of a stretch. Also Stripes...I might have seen a scene or two from that one but never have seen the whole thing. I miss old time Bill Murray and Chevy Chase, not the cranky guys who are now almost "too good for hollywood" etc. Too bad. I sort of get annoyed with them in the modern times, although Bill was funny in that Zombie movie with Woody Harleson. Anyway, this isn't about that. Funny Farm was a good movie.
Is that leading lady Mary Steenburgen? Good night.

I love this movie and would personally have probably given in a solid B.
Good day.
