Funny Farm

This movie grows on you. It's not the high comedy Chevy Chase has done before, but it's an understated kind of comedy that builds in momentum. Madelyn Smith is marvelous as his wife; her performance is full of delightful little throwaway expressions that enhance the mood of the film. I would highly recommend "Funny Farm"; the final scenes in which Yellowdog digs up part of a former owner and drags it into the house are priceless.
