Time spent watching films, even crappy ones, is time well-spent.

Raising Arizona (1987)

Nicolas Cage is a vanity-free genius and anyone who says otherwise is getting tripped up by his sketchy role selection process.  But, truth be told, even in the garbage, he’s magic.

Thankfully, this isn’t garbage and it can still make me laugh after a half-dozen viewings over the last 25 years. An absurd and hilariously quotable gem.

A+
