Katherine T @RT09521645 Mar 12 I remember seeing Blake Edwards' "S.O.B." in a real movie theater in 1981, and laughed my you-know-what off. If you know anything about how the sausage is made concerning movies, you may well appreciate this brilliant satire. Edwards knows this territory all too well, and the most fun you will have, aside from the constant over-the-top acid-tongued comedy, is deciding whom each of the characters represents in real life. Oh, yes, they are based on specific real-life people. I won't try to name names, because you should have the fun. One thing I will ask you to watch for is the gentleman with his dog who is on the beach in front of the Farmers' house for about half of the film. That's the Edwards' personal physician, Dr. Tanney, who is given small parts in Blake's movies just for fun. Here, he is billed in the credits as "Stiffe Tanney". I know that "S.O.B." is not for all tastes, but if you give it a try, you may love it. I do. See more thiago s @Thiagostone Sep 1 Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom See more Irene M @igawel 12/17/2024 Watched as part of a Blake Edwards binge. acknowledge the satire. surprised at the nudity. Didn't enjoy the slapstick physical humor. Don't think I would have even understood why it was made, if I hadn't read the connection to "Darling Lily". See more dave s @RT68722908 06/04/2021 Blake Edwards' S.O.B.does its best to disprove the old adage that less is sometimes more. What could have been a scathing satire on the morals and principles of the Hollywood elite is instead a movie where virtually every scene is overplayed, replete with plenty of yelling and hysteria and silliness and pointless slapstick, subverting any message that was trying to be imparted. There are a handful of laughs, but for the most part the characters all say and do too much, to the point where it borders on exhausting. You know that there are problems when the best parts of the movie are Julie Andrews "boobies" and the secondary plot involving the fate of the corpse on the beach and its faithful dog.
