Theodore J. Flicker, best known for directing "The President's Analyst" and co-creating "Barney Miller", directed and co-wrote (with Henry) this extremely weird farce. It feels very much like a dry run at "The President's Analyst", with an array of odd characters and strange, absurdist plot interruptions, as well as a plot involving a vast comic conspiracy. It's really not as good as that film, but it's a fitfully amusing curiosity that feels like it should have been a cult item.
