both because I support conservative film-making and think that could use a good jab in the arm, and because I have tended to enjoy comedies in the past. Though it was a bit too raunchy in places, Top Secret was an inspired bit of comedy, and remains one of my favourites.

There’s just one problem: the movie doesn’t appear to be playing within 40 miles of where I live.

Which, I submit to the good Reader, sucks.
