Comedy (2005) 74 Minutes ~ Color
"Chris Anich and Jim Ousley as the titular heroes are a scream..."(CBS Radio) in this award winning mockumentary which follows the rise and fall of the hit 80's television series HOOCH & DADDY-O, and joins the original cast as they reunite to film a made-for-TV movie. "Blending and blurring genres and oeuvres, HOOCH & DADD-O is in turns a wise social Documentary warning us of the travails of stardom; a dark Comedy, suckling at the twin teats of pratfalls and mullets; and a experiment in voyeurism, as we - curious and eager flies on the wall - take a delight in the joys and pains of these 1980's television superstars. A dangerous piece of cinema disguised as "buddy film, "HOOCH & DADDY-O challenges the conventions of Documentary, while jabbing at your funny bone with an incisive, spearing wit." (52nd City)
