Minor spoilers.
What starts out as a kooky black comedy takes a flip half way through and becomes a dark thriller. Jonathan Demme's best film (better than Silence Of The Lambs) is an absolute gem with a great soundtrack, performances (Melanie Griffith in an early role before she lost the plot, Jeff Daniels in his everyman guise and Ray Liotta in psycho mode) and location shooting. I haven't seen this for a few years either. It rarely get's an airing on T.V. I will have to pick it up on DVD sometime.
