The funeral for the patriarch of a wealthy but eccentric British clan is turned topsy-turvy when a stranger appears, claiming to be the dead man's gay lover, in this black comedy from director Frank Oz. The dysfunctional family grows wackier as the deceased's sons decide they can't let the rest of the guests get wind of this revelation. But can they get the cat back into the bag? Peter Dinklage, Matthew Macfadyen and Rupert Graves co-star.



Rated R 1 hour 31 minutes 2007

4.75 stars (Dale-5, David-4.5). Funny, crazy, made us laugh. After watching this very British black comedy, I would say you get hilarity, non sexual male nudity, slapstick stunts, pill popping, dysfunctional families, bathroom humor (some of which is downright gross), impropriety, a dwarf, bad manners, nonsense, silliness, charm, lovely English settings, blackmail, and absurdity.
