Fabulous film and so well done and acted. A tour de force performance from Tony Curtis, playing the part of an unscrupulous, manipulative and heartless press agent. Excellent.
This is a unique slice of Americana. Jeff Daniels is an astounding actor and Michigan resident. Being a Michigander is one thing, but this film pays tribute (?) to a unique culture of the residents of Michigan's Upper Peninsula: Da Yoopers. (Upper Peninsula = U.P. = Yooper.) You will go with Jeff to deer camp where he will attempt to shoot his first deer and break years of bad luck. Anyone in the great American Midwest knows that "deer camp" is an excuse to drink massive amounts of alcohol and use high powered weapons. While that would likely be enough to have a film, other "stuff" happens that really drives the comedy to new levels. Recommended. And for those viewing from other countries worldwide: Yes, this is America. And now, viewing this, you understand.
