So not funny it's hard to believe. At times down right distasteful. Yuch!

| Leonard Maltin/Plot synopsis: |
Stultifying remake of the Pierre Richard comedy LE JOUET with Pryor as penniless writer hired by zillionaire Gleason as plaything for spoiled son Schwartz. A few good gags are lost in a sea of you-can't-buy-friends-you-gotta-earn-them lectures, not to mention dubious taste for an 80's film with a black in such a demeaning part.

Does anyone no how I can get a copy of the original French version of this movie? Unlike this American bastardization, the French version was wonderful. Was it twenty-some-odd years ago I saw it. It haunts me, I loved it, I want to see it again. I want to share it with my daughter...thanks.
