Tromeo and Juliet -- Tromatic retelling of the Bard's classic tale of star-crossed love written by James Gunn (Slither, Dawn of the Dead 2004) and directed by Lloyd Kaufman!

Under the spell of a wandering charlatan named Starbuck, a lonely ranch girl blossoms into full womanhood. Katharine Hepburn garnered an Oscar nomination as the "believably plain yet magnetically beautiful" tomboy rancher, with Burt Lancaster brilliantly cast in the role of the smooth-talking con man who sells his rainmaking "powers" to unsuspecting, drought-ridden Western towns. Playwright N. Richard Nash meticulously enlarges his hit Broadway play to the big screen without losing any of the earthy, gut-wrenching emotions or the sheer, hilarious fun. The result is a genuinely appealing and beautifully executed romance. A must-see for Hepburn fans!

Dean Martin thinks that Shirley MacLaine was the mistress of a recently deceased millionaire. On this fragile plot peg hangs the rest of All in a Night's Work. The millionaire died with a smile on his face, and Martin, who stands to inherit the dead man's publishing business, suspects that MacLaine, who has been left a fortune, administered the "favors" that pushed the old coot into the Great Beyond. MacLaine, wholly innocent, resents Martin's implications and gives him the brush-off. All turns out for the good when Martin realizes that he loves MacLaine for herself and not for her legacy. It took three writers (five, if you count the authors of the play upon which this film is based) to cook up the tickle-and-tease souffle that we've come to know as All in a Night's Work.
