Brain Donors

BRAIN DONORS is the hilarious story about a wealthy widow Lillian (Nancy Marchand) who decides to found a ballet company after getting legal advice from her lawyer Roland Flakfizer (Turturro). Before long, she has two incapable assistants including a useless jack-of-all-trades and master of none named Jacques (Nelson) and Rocco (Smith) who is a cab driver whose credentials include pool cleaner, liposuctioner and toupee salesman. The result is an outrageously funny attack on high society as the characters unintentionally create a mess out of every endeavor.

(04/18/1992, p.11, Janet Maslin): "...[A] reasonably snappy attempt at notihing less than a present-day Marx Brothers comedy, with a cigar-waving John Turturro mugging furiously in the main role....Charming abandon..."
