King Pin is one of my favourite comedies of all time. I've played it to so many people over the years and it's never failed to draw belly laughs and tears.
One of Woody's best roles.......how one succeeds to be that funny and touching at the drop of a hat I can only marvel at. It is something rarely seen and I'm glad I've witnessed it at least once. It's in my collection and I know that over the years it'll keep being pulled out on a regular basis....film!
Briefly: A bowler doesn't fulfil his youthful promise and disappears into obscurity and the bottle only to be inspired years later by a young Amish man with a strong right arm and the prospect of coaching him to the final of a million dollar tournament. A road movie ensues with Vanessa Angel providing much more than a female interest.
There's no nudity to speak of but a lot of sexual and bodily function based humour....Hey! It's a Farrelly brothers movie! That isn't the only source of the film's humour and........
Bill Murray is the icing on the cake...the epitome of the cynical, hedonistic, self centred, insensitive comedy villain.
If you haven't seen it.......you gotta!!!
