This is a brilliantly funny, rather bizarre slapstick on the "wretched life of a clown". Stylised and extremely silly, it plays with the full clown kit. The leads – most of whom are just about recognisable under the greasepaint, as the team behind television's Velvet Soup – take everything just seriously enough for it to work and their nemesis Keystone cops, whom traditionally I hate only slightly more than clowns, are even great. A thoroughly enjoyable bit of nonsensical whimsy!
