    Editorial Reviews

    Joel Coen and Ethan Coen concocted this stylish screwball comedic amalgam of Frank Capra and Howard Hawks. Tim Robbins stars as Norville Barnes, a dull-wit from Muncie, Indiana who wrangles a job with the big Hudsucker Industries. He has a singular idea for a new children's toy that he wants to present to corporate executive Sidney J. Mussberger (Paul Newman). As he makes his way up to Mussberger's office, the company president Waring Hudsucker (Charles Durning) is on his way down -- through the window of the forty-fourth floor boardroom! Hudsucker's death sets off a panic that Mussberger sees as an opportunity for taking over the company -- by installing a total incompetent in Hudsucker's place and devaluing the stock. When Barnes stumbles into Mussberger's office, Mussberger sees his pigeon and appoints Barnes as the new company president. The only problem is that the new product Barnes proposes for the company, the Hula Hoop, turns out to be a tremendous success, and Mussberger has difficulty manipulating his new corporate president.

    February 03, 2002: What a great movie! It has all the charm of a classic, with some very modern touches. Tim Robbins is perfect in his role as someone who just 'fallen off the turnip truck' and into the presidency of a company in turmoil, that craves even more turmoil as far as its executives (and their stock interests) are concerned. It also has an amazing performance from Jennifer Jason Leigh as very Catherine Hepburn-esque journalist. Her dialogue is crackling with those drawn out vowel sounds that never seem to be taken into the context of a modern movie. Overall, this is a must see. Very imaginitive, very funny.
