I mentioned in passing to Matt that I had never seen this film and it soon after arrived from the library. The film being over 20 years old, I was a bit leery that we would get some good racist humor, but it was a surprisingly progressive film and also was pretty funny, even after all these years. Now that I've seen it, clearly my life is complete.

I remember loving this movie. I am not sure I would find quite the same zeal for it now! It did bring us the classic: Put another shrimp on the barbie!
ReplyDeleteNot only is it not racist, it also refrained from sexist and homophobic humor, and just focused on the confusion of a traditional man in a confusing culture.
