Wes Anderson has built a career off producing parodies of John Irving's style. He has been a competent raconteur whose stories - which are heavily indebted to the work of John Irving - still had the substance of strong characters and stories underneath the Irving aesthetic.
There is very little going on in this film apart from the craft of cinematography, set design, costume design, and all of the other production elements which make Wes Anderson films what they are. The major thing that is missing is... the story. This story is just terrible. John Irving is still alive as of this writing. If Wes Anderson takes on the task of making another film only to find he forgot he did not have a real story to tell, perhaps he could try giving John Irving a call and get some advice from him.

Although not Humble Pie or the Small Faces, Steve Marriott is in fine form here and this live performance holds up very well. For some strange reason live documents of Steve Marriott are hard to find. Since there are so few Humble Pie live videos of good quality, this 1985 film is most welcome.
