Crazy People is a 1990 movie starring Dudley Moore as an advertising executive. He is committed to a psychiatric hospital for making truthful advertisements, such as in an ad for Volvo, which proclaims "Volvo. They're boxy, but they're good." In the sanitarium he falls in love with Kathy (Daryl Hannah), a fellow patient, and transforms the place into a branch of the advertising industry, where other mental patients come up with wild, often funny advertising slogans, like "Forget Paris. Come to Greece. We're nicer," for a Greek travel agency. The movie closes with George (David Paymer), a patient who speaks only in variations of "Hello" (e.g., "Hello, how the flip are you?"), singing the "Hello" parts of "Hello, Hello, Hello! What a wonderful word, Hello."
The movie was released on VHS and Laserdisc (now out of print) in late 1990, and on widescreen DVD in 2004. The soundtrack featured the song "Don't Go Away Mad (Just Go Away)" by Mötley Crüe.
Trivia
- A parody Sony commercial was part of the movie. The tagline was "Sony - because Caucasians are just too damn tall".
