Delirious

A soap opera writer (John Candy) gets hit on the head and wakes up as a character in his own show.I have to say I am not generally a fan of John Candy's films.

If you could write the script for your life what would it look like? Most people, I'm sure, would write themselves having a pleasant life with little to no ills or setbacks.

John Candy, Mariel Hemingway, Emma Samms, Raymond Burr, Dylan Baker, Charles Rocket, Andrea Thompson and David Rasche star in this 1991 comedy. The late, great, Candy plays Jack Gable, a writer who gets into an accident and dreams he's on his soap opera, "Beyond Our Dreams.

Loved it. Bought it at a flea market with no expectations other than liking Steve Buscemi and his choice of rolls, and I wasn't disappointed.

Slightly along the lines of My Aunt Julia and the Scriptwriter but the other way around and with fantasy rather than contrivance, with similar comedy and cheesy soap opera acting/story lines. It's silly, ridiculous but typical of soap opera shenanigans and it's quite a good spoof in that regard.

After a coffee run, homeless hunk Michael Pitt (as Toby Grace) asks to crash with seedy celebrity photographer Steve Buscemi (as Les Galantine). After being assured the handsome blond youth is not gay, Mr.

Tom DiCillo is a cool New York-based independent filmmaker, and he's made some good stuff in the past (most notably as DP for Jim Jarmusch, and as the director of sleepers like the great Living in Oblivion), and I wish him the best of luck on anything he does. But on Delirious, he only gets it right some of the time.

This is a really good movie to watch if you like silly/fun movies, parody movies, or john candy. It has a great blend of comedy, wit, action and all sorts of other things.

There are only a few actors in the same category as John Candy when it comes to 90's comedy. The reasons that this movie does not rank as one of the best movies of its genre are a good,not great, script, no special effects, and only one star.
