A mint-condition comedy about a couple whose dream house renovations turn their lives into a slapstick nightmare. Tom Hanks and Shelley Long buy a crumbling mansion for a song and find their repair problems mounting faster than you can say "Honey, the bathtub fell through the floor."

In this hilarious undercover comedy, violinist Richard Drew (Tom Hanks) triggers a game of rivalry between two feuding CIA bosses (Charles Durning, Dabney Coleman) when he is mistaken for a spy after wearing one red shoe. Though Richard is mugged, shot at and chased, he remains unaware that he is an object of suspicion and even falls in love with the agent (Lori Singer) who's trailing him. Meanwhile, his friend's (Jim Belushi) love-starved wife (Carrie Fisher) has designs on him as well. This film is the American version of the French film The Tall Blond Man With One Black Shoe.

Mia Farrow plays a lonely Depression-era waitress trapped in an unhappy marriage. She escapes her drab life by going to the movies over and over again. Suddenly, one day, her movie heartthrob steps off the screen and into her life -- literally! A bittersweet cinema fantasy.

Two factions of the CIA trail Richard, a classical violinist who's picked out of a crowd and accused of being a spy because he wears one red shoe.
