Title: A gem through and almost through
Review: Devil - Ms. Grimsby? Grims - Yes.. Devil - Ms. Eleanor Grimsby of 704 Hampshire road middle sussex? Grims - Yes, that's me. Devil - Ms. Grimsby, did I get you out of the bath... Grims - .. Yes, you did. Devil - Sorry wrong number.hmmn, ok ok that's just my far off recollection of the lines but I laugh just thinking about the 'Unholy One' making prank phone calls from up a telephone pole. This 60s british comedy is a re-telling of Faust by Peter Cook and Dudley Moore and although slow in one or two places, is fantastically well written, funny, and stylish. Moore is the suicidal burger flipper who sells his soul to the devil played by Cook. God and Raquel Welch are also featured. Hollywood, is of course doing a remake (why? why?)A definite cult classic. Cook is fantastic as the devil and was a true genious in comedy writing. Moore... well anyone who could write a title song as cool as the one in Bedazzled can't be all bad - Dudley - you were half a genious.
