Where’s Poppa? - 1970 - 6/10
To see a comedy this uncomfortable, one usually hunts down Brit fare.
Not so here.
Gordon is an attorney, middle aged, single, still caring for his mother.
Mom suffers dementia, the bat crazy nuts kind.
Not abusive or hateful, but grossly inappropriate, tushie.
Ruth Gordon gleefully revels in this role, and is the main reason to watch.
If you are dealing with aging, senile parents, this may be irresistible or repellent.
Not for the squeamish. γνῶθι σεαυτόν
