Plot Summary:In the 1988 comedy A Fish Called Wanda, directed by Charles Crichton, an ensemble cast led by John Cleese, Jamie Lee Curtis, Kevin Kline, and Michael Palin delivers a hilarious tale of crime, deception, and romance. Jamie Lee Curtis stars as Wanda Gershwitz, a seductive and cunning con artist who, along with her lover Otto West (Kevin Kline), a dim-witted, pseudo-intellectual American, teams up with George Thomason (Tom Georgeson), a British gangster, to pull off a lucrative diamond heist in London.

However, when Wanda and Otto double-cross George, hoping to take the diamonds for themselves, things quickly spiral out of control. George is arrested, but not before he secretly moves the diamonds to a hidden location, giving Wanda and Otto no choice but to try to manipulate George's timid and animal-loving accomplice, Ken Pile (Michael Palin), who is fiercely loyal to George and has no intention of divulging the secret.

Wanda decides to seduce George's barrister, Archie Leach (John Cleese), believing he can provide vital information on the diamonds' whereabouts. As Archie, a stuffy, unfulfilled lawyer stuck in a loveless marriage, becomes captivated by Wanda's charms, he unwittingly finds himself caught up in a tangled web of lies, betrayal, and escalating chaos. Meanwhile, Otto, jealous of Wanda's growing attraction to Archie, adds to the pandemonium with his violent outbursts and comically misguided attempts at sabotage.

A Fish Called Wanda combines witty dialogue, slapstick humor, and masterful performances to create a comedic masterpiece that has delighted audiences for decades. Join our podcast review as we revisit this beloved classic and discuss its timeless humor, unforgettable characters, and whether its brilliant blend of wit and farce still entertains today's viewers.
