À propos de ce film

A "wickedly funny" (Cue) comedy about the value of life and death, this "hysterical" (Variety) slapstick farce will leave you dying from laughter! Burt Reynolds (Boogie Nights) gets help ending it all from an all-star cast featuring Dom DeLuise, Sally Field, Joanne Woodward, Myrna Loy, Carl Reiner and Kristy McNichol. Sonny (Reynolds) is a freewheeling bachelor who will do anything to avoid physical pain! So when he suddenly is diagnosed with a fataland painful disease, he guzzles down a bottle of sleeping pills in an effort to end it all! But his plan not only fails, it lands Sonny in the loony bin beside a demented schizophrenic named Marlon (DeLuise) who is more than eager to help him fulfill his mission! And as each outrageous attempt backfires in a more hysterical way than the last, Sonny realizes that life no matter how brief is definitely worth living. But tell that to Marlon, who's hell-bent on seeing Sonny's suicide plans through to The End!
