Who is Cletis Tout?
2001, 89 minutes, Rated M
An all-star cast steals the laughs in this criminally entertaining film that crosses Get Shorty with The Usual Suspects and comes up with the "year's most original comedy!"
Who is Cletis Tout? takes classic elements from crime movies - a jewel heist, a prison break, a fugitive, a beautiful girl - turns them inside out, upside down, and shakes them into a hilarious new comedy caper! Christian Slater plays Finch, a forger who's having an indentity crisis. Tim Allen is "a riot" (Lou Lumenick, New York Post) as Critical Jim, a hitman who holds his victims hostage while he plays scenes from his favourite movies. Oscar winner Richard Dreyfuss and Portia de Rossi lend dazzle as a magician-thief and his alluring daughter. And RuPaul is hysterically funny as a nosy neighbour with a fabulous wardrobe. Who is Cletis Tout? Finding out is the fun in this ingeniously plotted movie!
