5.0 out of 5 stars Bittersweet gem, April 26, 2000

This review is from: Quackser Fortune has a Cousin in the Bronx (DVD)

Beautiful sleeper of a film featuring two excellent leading performances and fine photography of Dublin. Margot Kidder and Gene Wilder make an offbeat pair and work very well together. Kidder is stunningly beautiful in her first leading role, almost ten years before her success as Lois Lane. Wilder is totally believable as Quackser -- watch this movie after "Young Frankenstein" and you'll see the enormous range of which this actor is capable. Viewers expecting Mel Brooks-type humor will be disappointed -- "Quackser"'s humor grows from the differences between the two lovers' backgrounds. Warm, simple and sad, "Quackser" also delivers a gentle message about nonconformity. A highly original love story worth adding to your collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars Gene Wilder At His Irish Best!!, May 22, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Quackser Fortune Has a Cousin [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Quakser Fortune(Gene Wilder)is a somewhat eccentric,uneducated humble,fertilizer merchant in Dublin Ireland when a rich,sophisicated American visitor Zazel Pierce(Margot Kidder)becomes fascinated by him when they first connect,their different lifestyles become irrelevant but they later grow tired of each other especially by Zazel's snobbish friends.Quakser then retreats to his old job of gathering horse manure to sell as fertilizer.When his cousin in the Bronx dies he leaves a small fortune for Quakser that changes his livelihood forever.This is quite an interesting,offbeat comedy/drama with Gene Wilder at his Irish best!!
