IN-LAWS, THE

Details

• Release Year: 1979
• Genre: Comedy
• Plot: With his daughter about to marry, Manhattan dentist Sheldon Kornpett is getting in over his head. The groom's father Vince Ricardo (who may/may not be CIA) has been in over his head so long he may have lost it totally. As played by Alan Arkin and Peter Falk, they're as different as night and day-and one of the funniest screen teams ever as The In-Laws. (The 2003 remake The Wedding Party stars Michael Douglas and Albert Brooks.) ; ; Throw in a uniquely zany script by Andrew Bergman (Blazing Saddles, Fletch) and snappy direction by Arthur Hiller (The Americanization of Emily, The Hospital) and you have a wild and woolly comedy that doesn't stop. The In-Laws is a scream.
