"Can Heironymus Merkin Ever Forget Mercy Humppe
and Find True Happiness?"

One of the strangest (and most infamous) cinematic ego trips in film history, starring
Anthony Newley as a song-and-dance man who reviews his debauched past.   He begins the film
wearing huge, Elton John-ish sunglasses (possibly as some kind of warped tribute to "8 1/2"),
while  lecturing his mother and daughter in a surreal desert setting.   Elements of Fellini and
even  Jodorowsky are present (albeit in a very bizarre way).

Newley also produced, directed, wrote the screenplay and music for the film.  The Holy Grail for
Newley fans, and an essential addition to the collections of Golden Turkey fans.
