-f mr.mincemeat

I just saw zelig at last...  This is an amazing exercise in meticulous 
historical fabrication and i thought absolutely hilarious; This is the most
absurd movie I have ever seen.  I usually don't like woody allen, too much
leaping and shouting and mugging and too little wit, but this one is just
swell.  Not for everyone I suppose though, only about six people in the 
theater were laughing. No "jokes"; no "punch lines"; thankfully few 
woodyallen boffo sight gags; lots of marvellously twisted historical
nonevents and a nearly flawless air of authenticity.  I'd go see this 
before almost any other comedy except harold & maude.
