deftly spoofing the wiseguy roles that have been a staple of his estimable
career, plays powerful New York crime family racketeer Paul Vitti. Crystal,
always one joke ahead of sleeping with the fishes, is shrink Ben Sobel, who
has just days to resolve Vitti's emotional crisis and turn him into a happy,
well-adjusted gangster. Yes, Sobel is a family psychiatrist. But surely this
isn't the kind of family he had in mind! Analyze That: They locked up mob
boss Paul Vitti in Sing Sing and that's where he sang sang - bellowing West
Side Story tunes and convincing officials he's more suited for a nut house
than the Big House. Better yet, the Feds say, let's release Vitti into the
custody of his therapist Ben Sobel!

Anyone can make

trade he gives away in How To Irritate People. With the help of fellow

Towers and Goodie Tim Brooke-Taylor, Cleese demonstrates the uncanny ability
to keep his victims just the right temperature under the collar... one
degree below boiling point. Recorded live in front of a thoroughly irritated
audience and including the famed 'Airline Pilot' sketch, How To Irritate
People is a lesser known classic of British comedy.

Vladimir Ivanoff (Williams) suddenly defects from his touring troupe in that
"temple of Western decadence" - Bloomingdale's. Fleeing the
K.G.B., Vladimir wins asylum and moves into the crowded Harlem flat of black
security guard Lionel Witherspoon (Cleavant Derricks). Soon he has found
both a voluptuous Italian lover Lucia Lombardo (Maria Conchita Alonso), and
a shrewd Cuban lawyer Orlando Ramirez (Alejandro Rey). Though Vladimir
learns that life in America can be cold and even painful, he grows to love
this strange and wondrous new land. Director Paul Mazursky has truly
transformed Vladimir's declaration of independence into a very memorable
film.
