THE FORTUNE (BLU-RAY)

“Very funny, manically scatterbrained…nobly conceived in an era that has just about abandoned farce…The Fortune is farce of a rare order.” ?Vincent Canby, The New York Times

“An offbeat but often hilarious comedy…a catalogue of slapstick errors…works well through the fine performances of the leads and the superb timing of director Nichols.” ?TV Guide

In The Fortune (1975), a period-set comedy from director Mike Nichols (The Graduate), Jack Nicholson and Warren Beatty star?and we do mean star?as a pair of hapless con men attempting to separate a madcap heiress (the marvelous Stockard Channing, making her movie debut) from her very attractive money. Stylish, witty, and entertainingly nasty, the film features superlative work from a host of 1970s superstars: screenwriter Adrien Joyce (pseudonym for Five Easy Pieces’ Carole Eastman), cinematographer John A. Alonzo (Chinatown), production designer Richard Sylbert (Rosemary’s Baby), costume designer Anthea Sylbert (Chinatown), and the utterly distinctive composer David Shire (The Conversation), who provides an adapted score.
