2 unlikely paths cross in this serious dark comedy. The film never gets too serious, and does not attempt to get cheap laughs from slapstick gags, just the general premise of a friendship between a widowed Jewish Cantor obsessed with the body of his late wife , and a single, divorced, Community College Science teacher that the Cantor thinks has all the answers, makes this a funny enjoyable, non commercial film.
James Fox plays a father that is obsessed with finding his missing daughter. He encounters a group of people who have children that have gone missing, and attempts to go to London to look for her. He encounters a variety of assorted crazies, grimy streets, and filthy places. The film holds the viewers attention for the entire result with a surprising ending.
I thought this film would be good because Stuart Margolin is in it, pre- Angel Martin on the Rockford Files. I was mistaken, it is pretty bad, the photography looks nice however the print that I viewed was scratched beyond repair. A very poorly made co-production. Don Gordon is a good character actor, but character actors can't always carry an entire picture.
