A Brit comedy, "The Jokers" with Oliver Reed and Michael Crawford.
"Shot in the Dark," the best Clouseau.
"Morgan," another Brit.
"MASH."

mentioning british comedies reminds me of the wonderful irish comic thriller "the guard." super enjoyable. very amusing rather than fall-off-the-chair funny.

going a bit off topic and a bit downer here, but, to refresh my memory, i just looked at lists of best british comedies and saw lots of alex guiness (makes sense) but then was stunned to see brazil and in bruges (say what?) on the lists. both of those movies are well done but among the most depressing, horrifying films i have ever seen. comedies? i think not. those 2 films are comedies like get out and parasite are comedies. brazil is an adaptation of kafka's "the trial." kafka a comic writer? i-don't-think-so!
