“When did you start carrying a knife?”
I was a big John Candy fan through the 1980’s. In this movie, John Candy plays TV producer Jack Gable who is in love with his leading actress played by the stunningly beautiful Emma Samms and struggling to keep creative control over his series from his co-producers played by Jerry Orbach and Renee Taylor. Meanwhile, he keeps stumbling quite literally into Mariel Hemingway as the struggling potential actress trying to get a role on his show and as a rival TV writer named Fetterman tries changing his universe even with his own typos creating havoc. After mysteriously ending up on his show, he keeps trying to write the plot to win Samms’s heart through gleefully far-fetched fantasies, but he instead keeps running into Hemingway. The best parts of this movie are its ability to parody the soap opera theme (brain tumors, favorite sons, absurd declarations, diabolical scheming, series contradictions, etc). Samms seems to enjoy herself in this movie playing a conniving vixen while the versatile Hemingway plays the All-American girl-next-door type with a bit of whimsical awkwardness, but much of the comedy comes from the male co-stars, particularly Raymond Burr as the head of the Hedison clan. Playing the comedy straight, Burr delivers almost every line as a catchphrase.“Delirious” is a sort of “Twilight Zone” affair in which a soap mogul is haunted by his old characters, even those he has killed off. (“Len? Len? We killed him off two seasons ago!”) Even though this side of the plot is barely explored, what we have left is a “Brady Bunch”-level fantasy-comedy with all the raucous humor of a spoof of a daytime drama. At its core, “Delirious” is a love story linking Candy with Hemingway to discover what he really wants instead of what he thinks he wants. It has a strong cast, a script that bounces from the weak to the absurd to the amusing and an enterprising premise. The movie “Delirious” gently penetrates the issue of what could happen when a man or woman can simply “write the outcome” of their inner and outer world.
