Clue (1985)

I originally wanted to see ML Buch at Union Chapel on this night but it sold out. If you got a ticket, feel free to gloat. But how's this as an alternative - one of the most enjoyable films ever made?

To my knowledge still the only successful movie adaptation of a board game*, Clue is far, far better than it has any right to be, a rapid-faced, wildly funny translation of Cluedo to the big screen with a brilliant comic cast that includes Christopher Lloyd, Madeline Kahn, Michael McKean, Eileen Brennan, Colleen Camp and Tim Curry.

The plot? Haven't you played the game? Six colourful strangers are invited to dinner only for a murder to occur. But which one of them did it, and in which room, and with what weapon? They all have to work together, or maybe against each other, to find out.

Tickets here, I'm in C5. This is a nice, early film so we can meet outside afterwards and go for a post-drink somewhere. And hey, after that it's Saturday night in Soho!

*And the best film where Tim Curry hosts confused strangers at a dangerous, secluded country house on a stormy night. You know what I'm talking about.
