Mr. Patman (1980)
8/10
One of the most underrated films ever.
14 February 2020
I don't understand why such a cute little gem was not better known and shown. Of course, it was not destined to large audiences, not the kind of people who crave for action flicks or super heroes crap. It's not a comedy but a bittersweet drama that makes you think, long after you saw it. A very accurate analysis of the human condition, which could make you think, but from another angle, and just because of the mental institution settings, to ONE FLEW OVER A CUCKOO'S NEST, where Jimmy Coburn's character seems to be the Jack Niholson's cousin in Milos Forman's masterpiece. A move made four years earlier. That's my own opinion.
