Advantages: So funny, great storyline, brilliant actors perfect for their parts

Disadvantages: None

I have always loved this 1985 comedy classic since it first saw it. It just wouldn't be the same without the famous actor John Cleese who played the headteacher Brian Stimpson on his journey to Norwich. You will never find a funnier, more gripping comedy. All the actors in the film are perfect for their parts, and if you haven't already seen it then I recommend it so much to you.

The storyline cut short is this, Brian Stimpson is the headmaster of a high school and it is just another normal day but the film starts off with him rehearsing with his script for the Headmasters Conference in Norwich later that day. He was always been renown for being late to everything. His wife takes him to the train station to catch the train, but he gets on the wrong one and leaves his script on it, and misses the other one. His wife has already left and he calls for a taxi but bumps into a student at his school playing truant, Laura, in her parents' car and asks her to drive him to Norwich. There is so many twists and turns on the way, he bumps into an old friend and is on a chase away from the police when they forget to pay for the petrol, they end up driving through the fields with the wrong directions and go into a monastrey and also steal a rich man's car, clothes and money. He finally arrives at the conference hours late, without his script and then it ends with him in a police car.

I recommend this so much to anyone who has never seen it before.

Summary: The best film ever, so funny, great actors
