REVIEWS

Review by R. Michael Bach (posted on 10-Jul-2007)

Absolutely one of the funniest ever, with a diverse cast of characters, in a variety of roles. The courtroom scene is hilarious, but is somewhat of a social lesson that friends make a person what they are, and not money. Highly recommended, and one that never gets old. It will be a classic for many years in the future.
