Withnail is an absolute gem when you discover it. The scriptwriting is very clever and subtle and after you've seen it a couple of times you will still be laughing even perhaps a little louder the more times you see it. Richard Griffiths is born for this role - I only have to see him in the film and he makes me laugh. I think that the thing I love most about this film is the anarchic nature of the script and the unconventional theme. Considering that Richard E Grant doesn't drink its incredible he can play someone who is drunk all the time. I put this film on on a rainy afternoon for my girlfriend not sure whether it would amuse her but she couldn't stop laughing. I thoroughly recommend this film. Go and get it on DVD now!
