Nirvana shows refreshing good taste in nominating "Kind Hearts and Coronets"

the film contains the best line ever, in any movie, anywhere, any time :

"Ah,we used to get a lot of this stuff in the Crimea" (you need to watch it to get it ...)

Not many comedy films are funny right through although many are better made, and at least as good as these - there are funny bits, but the above lot have more than their share for me.

2. Dumb and Dumber
3. Spinal Tap?

Anger Managemen really made me laugh though, as did Big Lebowski.
