Hard Life circa 1987 (misdirected by PRINCE)

Came across this movie last night and I watched it.. mr N sure has a sick sense of humour and this film is just so horrendeslly bad it is hysterically funny......the lady who punches out the guys is great..........................

Im sure Mr N had aspirations of being a great Hollywood producer........

Whats your opinion?

Who/what released the best viddeo quality version? (no link asked, just need a group name or something)

I recall watching it quite a while ago.

Would have to see it again.

That was Dr. Fink's mom. I loved this video, all the cameos and the Madhouse vibe of that era.

Mr N has a really warped sense of humour...........He should have explored this tuype of genre more rather than trying to be a serious actor in his own productions.........I believe he could create some really interesting art house comedic satorials................intelligent humour.................a bit like Louis Theroux meets the Wyane brothers meets peter jackson........Prince doing Kickass 2/3.........yeah.............................

Its not that bad, Greg and Wally are actually quite funny. Its an interesting dicotomy between black white, all the whites are rich and upper class and the blacks are struggling wanna be hustlers. But the funny thing is its Prince in control of them all. Plus the fact its in the vein of Under the Cherry Moon.

An amusing period piece and sad considering Greg and Wally were givemn their marching orders not long afterwards.

Got some kind of love for you, and I don't even know your name
