Full Plot Details

The story of this social satire and soap parody follows two rich white upper class families living in Beverly Hills, California. Recently widowed Claire is a once popular sitcom star, who dreams of a Hollywood comeback. She and her daughter Zandra are not very close, even though they live in the same house, so she turns to her best friend Lisbeth for comfort. Lisbeth is a socialite with her own set of problems. Her alcoholic husband Howard left her for another woman. Her son Willie is terminally ill and hopelessly in love with Zandra, who doesn't even notice him. Lisbeth's poor playwright brother Peter is in love with Claire, even though he just got married in Vegas to sassy To-Bel, a woman he barely knows. Meanwhile, Claire's houseboy Juan and Lisbeth's bisexual chauffeur bet on which of the two will seduce his cougar boss first. Several other plot points make things even more complicated. It turns out that To-Bel has a secret past. The ghost of Claire's husband Sidney starts haunting Claire. Juan keeps failing at his "mission", which terrifies him, because he has to sleep with Frank if he looses the bet. Lisbeth's ex husband keeps coming back into her life - when he gets too drunk to remember that they're divorced. Doctor Mo Van De Kamp shows up to ask for donations for his charity Hungry Drive in Africa, but his honesty is questionable. Mexican maid Rosa speaks in non-sequitur. A housekeeper is brutally murdered. The doctor's dog Bo'Jangles is attracted to To-Bel. A hypocritical wake is held and prejudice of both the upper class characters and the lower class characters is revealed. However, there may still be hope for some of these horrible people.

Movie Reviews

EmanuelLevy.Com - 9/10 by Emanuel LevyAs a follow-up to Eating Raoul, Paul Bartel's satire is disappointing. It's a meandering movie of some funny moments and biting scenes, but it shows the director's limitations.
User Review - 10/10 by Private UHot, saucy, ribald escapades of the rich and bored. Arnetia Walker as To-Bel steals every scene she appears in.
User Review - 10/10 by Parrish HFunniest movie ever. Best line: "By the way, your buddy Howard here recently did some exploration of certain dark parts of my continent. In fact, he went so deep into areas unexplored by your feeble playwritin' ass that I was beginning to think he was Louis AND Clark!"
User Review - 10/10 by Lehho RBegley, Jr. vs. Wallace Shawn. What could be better? "A mouth is a mouth is a mouth."
User Review - 8/10 by Larry WAn alternately amusing, tiresome, intelligent and disappointing modernization of Jean Renoir's Rules of the Game. It never lives up to the promise of its opening scene, but it's a nice little departure for Paul Bartel.
User Review - 6/10 by Brad SThis bizaree retread of Luis Buneul films is a somewhat amusing send up of class, manners, and sexual mores
User Review - 2/10 by Allan CDreadful comedy about two shallow rich families in Beverly Hills sharing a mansion. Really struggles with humour with most attempts centered around the group sleeping with each other or attempting to seduce others in the house.
User Review - 2/10 by Chris Ma little bit funny but mostly dumb in a vapid ostentatious 80's way.
