Ernie Kovacs: Between the Laughter

[BE THE FIRST TO RATE THIS MOVIE]
Calorie Rating: 141
Released: 1984-05-14
Running Time: 100 Minutes


This is a splendid little sleeper of a movie. Ernie Kovacs was one of the giants of early television. I think he would be pleased with the way Jeff Goldbloom captures his wonky personality. Melody Anderson also distills that of Edie Adams. There is a very basic heart tugging story about the search for Kovacs' two abducted daughters. But at the same time the film is funny --- Cloris Leachman is a hoot as Kovacs impossible mom --- and has many of the offbeat and innovative qualities of the old Kovacs show itself.
