A Thousand Clowns (1965)

Twelve-year-old Nick lives with his Uncle Murray, a Mr.Micawber-like Dickensian character who keeps hoping something won't turn up. What turns up is a social worker, who falls in love with Murray and a bit in love with Nick. As the child welfare people try to force Murray to become a conventional man (as the price they demand for allowing him to keep Nick), the nephew, who until now has gloried in his Uncle's iconoclastic approach to life, tries to play mediator. But when he succeeds, he is alarmed by the uncle's willingness to cave in to society in order to save the relationship.

This movie left me wondering what's wrong with balance? Why should we have to choose between a dreary job and an exciting life? Of course most of us have to work to pay the rent and everything else, but it really annoyed me that in this movie, that seemed to mean that life is pretty much over. It's hard to keep a balance between work and play but I truly think it can be done. Not to mention that even the most mind numbing of jobs may have meaning and value because of the people we work with and the choices we make. A movie that gets me this riled up must be very good.

Barry Gordon and Jason Robards make a hilarious duo in this walk to the beat of your own drum comedy. I would definately recommend this to anyone looking for a good laugh.

Timeless is an adjective that's tossed around too frequently, but A Thousand Clowns more than qualifies.

I want Jason Robards to adopt me. It never becomes corny. Although many films (both American and European) seem to tread carefully and critically through the subject of the dislocated dreamer against the regimental and unjust rules of a terribly brutal society, searching for something other than security, predictability, it's never repetitive. In his amazingly clever, wise and humorous nephew, Murray has a chance to pass on his own ideals and virtues to a truly original child. They become best friends, and although Murray is not actually a parental figure in the social workers definition, he manages to pass on his spirit and his wisdom to a kid he loves, without even knowing it. So as an individual, it is ok if Murray is not a reliable contributor of society. And I love the way it was filmed. Many films play around with images and dialogue and sound, but this one is elegant and simultaneously nerve-wracking. Ok im done its a damn good film to have in your collection.
