Gus is a fat cartoonist that recently won a battle against cancer, which explains his baldness. But he is also lonely. Therefore, his caring sister tries to set him up with suitable women. But to do so, she must turn him into an irresistible man. When he falls in love with Emily, Gus takes the identity of a mysterious biker from New Zealand.
Loved this movie!
Shelley Long is outstanding in this smart, well written, well acted comedy! She created a memorable character who is as hilarious as she is charming. I don't want to short-change the rest of the cast, however–-Steve Gutenberg and Jami Gertz were wonderful and had great chemistry together.
I didn't even know about this movie when it came out in 1990. Was it not promoted at all? What a shame, and thank goodness for DVDs!
All three of these actors should have been in more movies and had more promotion. When I think of some of the awkward writing, wooden acting, and just downright awful movies I have seen over the years, it makes me truly ill to think of actors of this caliber being overlooked.
Watching this movie was a lovely way to spend an afternoon!
