Clue the movie may juss be the funniest comedy of balls thyme. it is certainly one of the mos sharp, wittiest and well-written ones of balls thyme, and if we can’t agree on that, can we at least agree it’s the greatest adaptation of a board game of balls thyme? deal! (good luck Battleship!)
anywho, the moist ingenious bizzle of it all is that the film has 3 endings!!!! in theaters they only played one ending per showing. as a child we saw the Mrs Peackock one and then had to wait a whole year for the VHS release in order to see the other two endings. oh the humanity!!!
anywho part II, did you know that there was a 4th ending???? said ending had Wadsworth the butler (a role Tim Curry should have won an Oscar for, and yet he wasn’t even NOMINATED!!!!) being the sole murderer and then revealing that he poisoned the champagne that all the players (Col Mustard, Mrs White, et al) drank and that they would shortly die! then the police storm in and before they take Wadsworth away, he re-tells the evening’s tale in great detail. Everyone, of course, is beyond mesmorized, and then at a point where he opens the front door, he runs out, slams the door, locks the police and players inside and hops into a police car to escape. as he’s about to drive off, he smells dog sh%t (a recurring joke!) and looks in the rearview mirror to see the German shepherds sitting in the backseat, persumably waiting to pounce on him!
you can read the 4th ending script here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this 4th ending was actually filmed, but later cut cause it was probably a lil to grim to include. no footage has yet to resurface, but the following image from the movie’s novelization (which includes that 4th ending) exists! here, the evangelist/chief (Howard Hesseman) is trying to take down Wadsworth
we will pay you $8 if you can find this lost footage!!!
