Description
Steve Martin and Rick Moranis make for an altogether different odd couple in this mobster-out-of-water crime comedy classic. Inspired by the life of Henry Hill (also the source for Scorsese's quite different take in GoodFellas ), Nora Ephron pens a delightful ensemble of characters for director Herbert Ross. Both cast against type, Moranis is the by-the-book FBI lifer tasked with keeping Martin's goombah-tastic made man alive in witness protection while Joan Cusack's single mom DA steals the show with an abundance of slow-burn sincerity. The scrubbed lawns of suburban San Diego show up looking as fresh as today thanks to this sparkling HD transfer.
