フライング ハイ [DVD]

Leslie Nielsen has been around for a long time and in many leads before striking out on a road to comedy. This is but one story. However it was a turning point for him from leading man in "Forbidden Planet” (1956), to serious doctor in” Airplane!” (1980), to Field Guide in "National Geographic's “The Savage Garden” with Leslie Nielsen (1997)
Airplane has a great cast including Robert Stack (playing himself), Lloyd Bridges (glub glub), and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (just as defensive as ever).

This movie is unique. It is the first; I have seen displaying one liners with serious intent. It was not just slapstick or Abbot and Costello. This particular film uses the “Airport” movies as the basis of most of its humor.

It worked well enough for sequels and other films to be made in the new genre. I keep it with the Leslie Nielsen Collection.

コメディ映画界の至宝トリオＺＡＺが繰り出す名作映画から迷作映画のパロディオンパレード！この作品を口火としてのちのち「ホットショット」「裸の銃を持つ男」（←レスリーニールセンはこのフライグハイでお笑い開花）などの大ヒットコメディーが誕生する。ジェリーザッカーなんか「ゴースト」とか真面目ラブストーリーでもスマッシュヒットさせてるんですけどね。とにかくおすすめ！バカバカしくも内容の濃い映画を探している人へ。
