A Fish Called Wanda

In A Fish Called Wanda, a lighthearted crime-comedy, four unlikely thieves led by Otto West (Kevin Kline), an intellectual with no proof, and Wanda Gershwitz (Jamie Lee Curtis), a seductress with a plan, bungle their way through a diamond heist. The group includes George Thomason (Tom Georgeson), the ringleader, and Ken Pile (Michael Palin), an animal lover with a stutter. Their score is massive but trust is thin. As the plot thickens, barrister Archie Leach (John Cleese) gets entangled in their web of deceit and confusion. Kevin Kline's performance won him an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor.
