The movie itself to quote Benny Hill is a bit like "bossom"...neither one thing nor the other. Meaning not a drama, nor a comedy.
For me, it is bitter sweet, without the sweet, and THAT all revolves around the enormous sadness I feel in seeing the great Kenneth Williams "playing" normal.
I have long been a fan of Williams. Firstly, hamming it up in his corny roles in the Carry On movies, but then much more deeply in seeing what a brilliantly gifted raconteur he was when ever on a talk show or being interviewed, followed by the marvelous "Fantabulosa" with Michael Sheen.
How horrific for this wonderful talent to endure the life he endured, and for it to end the way it did.
So, to watch him "playing normal" in this movie is quite heart breaking in the regard of how much I wish the poor devil could have had some level of normalcy in his real life.
Vale, Kenneth. Thank you so much for the joy you have given me, and I am so sorry how rough your life was.
