Directed by Stanley Tucci
The Impostors is a work of genuine genius (take that alliteration police). Its non-stop laughs* come from blending silent, slapstick, screwball, Marx/Warner Brothers, and musical comedies. Oliver Platt and Stanley Tucci are on the run after assaulting a famous stage actor. While hiding out on a cruise liner, hijinks ensue.
* You’ll definitely want more cream puffs after the Bakery scene.
See The Impostors trailer on YouTube. Even better, see the opening sequence at The Art of the Title Sequence (quicktime).
