Review of Gigot

Gigot (1962)
10/10
An Historic almost impossible film to get made
25 July 2009
Imagine trying to pitch Hollywood that your going to do a ninety minute Motion Picture where the star does not say a word. Especially when the star is known for his outrageous bellicose vocals. The visuals, the pathos and comedy in just the right mix or it will bore the audience to death. A huge undertaking....masterfully delivered by the rarest of mimes. Jackie Gleason. Classic movie from the first frame to the last. It never got the credit it deserved. As most special works of art don't. Someday, someone will realize how simply wonderful this film is. Less is more as all good artists know. Now if we can just educate the masses. P.S. Never played nine ball for money with Jackie or golf... in fact never bet against him doing anything! The clouds are open pal. come on in
