CGiii Comment

Not Gilliam's finest hour.

The whole thing becomes a rabble.

The only decent scenes are between Max Wall & John Le Mesurier...and there's not enough of them.

The(ir) Blurb...

After the death of his father the young cooper, Dennis Cooper (Sir Michael Palin), goes to town where he has to pass several adventures.
