Merv Griffin’s long reign of terror continued until finally ending in 2007 with his death.
Tonight #FlicksForAll is dedicated to the memory of his victims and not the sick ghouls who fetishize his heinous crimes.

Randi Brooks is legitimately funny with Martin as Fran.
She mainly did 80’s tv and showed up in Terrorvision to be eaten by an alien

The movie has been attributed as bringing the phrase "Scum Queen" into the popular vernacular.

There’s no better Steve Martin than Horny Steve Martin.
no one is horny anymore
I’m not horny anymore but that’s no excuse for the rest of you!

James Cromwell pretty much specialized in zany foreign accents this early in his career.
Check out his French chauffeur in Murder By Death

I don’t think it counts as gaslighting if you live in a Toon Town universe where your hands are suction cups. 🤔
That’s just me.

The one, the only other brain with a singing voice is Sissy Spacek as the voice of Anne Uumellmahaye, Brain #21.

Kathleen Turner, of Body Heat, used a body double for this scene.
“I was seriously offended by the scene in which my character is about to have her ass rubbed.
I did not think that was funny. I told them to get someone else's ass to rub."

British people are so weird, both in the movie and in real life.
This is the only Reiner/Martin collab to skip theaters in the UK and go straight to video.

A film as fun as #TheManWithTwoBrains should have been a hit but June 1983 was a fairly stacked moviegoing month. It opened the same day as WarGames and Psycho II; as the month went on Trading Places, Superman III, Octopussy, Porky's II, and the Twilight Zone movie entered the fray. #FlicksForAll
The singular, the tall, the magnificent, … the cheapest British actor of some note Carl Reiner could find,
David “malcolm mcdowell will always be busy” Warner 👏

Turn off Merv Griffin and go back to that beautiful brain of Donovan’s! 🧠

David Cronenberg was bored and uninterested in Steve Martin’s offer to direct the movie.
He didn’t understand why the girl brain couldn’t have an undulating mouth for all the many love scenes.he had planned.

Kathleen Turner jumped at the chance to do comedy after the femme fatale of Body Heat made her an ingenue.
This made the course of her career gravitate more to the comedic and sexy making her one of the 80’s most popular stars

Some of this poetry turns up again in LA Story (1991), also an absurdist comedy written by Martin about a hopelessly love lorn romantic.
