Movie review – “Man with Two Brains” (1982) ***

Steve Martin is very entertaining and is magnificently matched by Kathleen Turner, sexy and funny as hell. It’s amazing to think this was still one of her first performances (also interesting that the way she looks at the end of the film is how she looks now). Sissy Spacek’s voice is also ideal. It motors along and remains bright; I don’t have the attachment to this that I do of Flying High but there are several classic moments: Martin talking to the girl at the scene of the accident, the drink driving test, David Warner’s apartment.
