The Hudsucker Proxy

In the Coen Brothers' dazzling pastiche of 1940s comedies á la Frank Capra and Preston Sturges, Tim Robbins plays a nerdy mail clerk enlisted by shifty corporate executive Paul Newman to lead Hudsucker Industries to disaster. Instead, Robbins invents the hula hoop and the company's fortunes rise. Jennifer Jason Leigh is the spitfire reporter for whom Robbins falls. 111 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtracks: English Dolby Digital Surround stereo, French Dolby Digital Surround stereo; Subtitles: English.
