Product Description
RUTHLESS PEOPLE
Amazon.com
A milestone comedy of the 1980s, Ruthless People delighted critics and audiences alike and set the tone of Hollywood comedies for years to come. Along with that other popular farce about wealthy Californians, Down and Out in Beverly Hills, this ingenious romp revived Bette Midler's career and launched Disney (by way of its subsidiary, Touchstone Pictures) into the lucrative production of R-rated comedies; it also ensured the star power of then-TV star Danny DeVito. Dale Launer became Hollywood's hot screenwriter du jour by cleverly reworking O. Henry's Ransom of Red Chief into a wicked tale of marital malice heightened by a bungled kidnapping. Midler is sublime as the victim of low-rent abductors ("I've been kidnapped by Kmart!"), and DeVito's the gleeful philanderer who refuses to pay ransom for his wife's unwanted return. With Anita Morris, Judge Reinhold, Helen Slater, and Bill Pullman among the plot-twisting schemers, the movie's so much fun that an eventual remake seems almost inevitable. --Jeff Shannon

Best of Bette Midler April 17, 2010
C. Cotter (outside Philly)
I love Bette Midler as an actress, but this is by far my favorite of her movies- and the final screen shot is my favorite of all time. This is a classic, pure and simple, and should have you falling out of your chair laughing.
The incomparable Bette! April 1, 2010

The only thing better than Bette Midler and Danny Devito in a movie together? DVD Biz Wiz. Too bad someone lied and Amazon crucified him without proof and ignored his track record and reviews!!!

Danny and Bette at their Best September 12, 2009
Dean Alden Morse
What do you say about two icons when you put them together? Even though I have watched this film a dozen times I can watch it again. It belongs in every collectors library.
