The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad! (1988)
"The Villain. Even Mother Teresa wanted him dead. The Queen. What strings did she pull to get to the top? Undercover Guy. 72 bullets had his name on them. The Sexy Blonde. Like a convenience store, she was open all night. The Partner. He's in charge now, but as a young child he never really got the attention he longed for. Later, he had some trouble in school. But he met a girl and together they went on a backpacking trip around Europe. The Mayor. After last night, could she still be called "Your Honor"? The Right Fielder. He got paid $50,000.00 for four days filming." If you read all that, we're impressed and must be a big fan of the movie we are discussing this week, 'The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad!' starring Leslie Nielsen, Priscilla Presley and Ricardo Montalban. From the creators who brought you 'Airplane!'
