A Fine Mess is a 1986 film by Blake Edwards. The film was intended as a remake of Laurel & Hardy's classic short "The Music Box" and was to be semi-improvised in the same style as the director's earlier comedy, The Party, but studio interference, poor previews and subsequent re-editing resulted in the film becoming a fully-scripted chase comedy with very little of the original ideas for the film remaining intact.

dbpprop:abstract
  • A Fine Mess is a 1986 film by Blake Edwards. The film was intended as a remake of Laurel & Hardy's classic short "The Music Box" and was to be semi-improvised in the same style as the director's earlier comedy, The Party, but studio interference, poor previews and subsequent re-editing resulted in the film becoming a fully-scripted chase comedy with very little of the original ideas for the film remaining intact. Writer/director Blake Edwards actually gave television interviews telling audiences to avoid the film. For this reason, it received overwhelmingly negative reviews and was a box-office failure.
  • En Estados Unidos, el nombre del director precedía al de la película: Blake Edwards' a fine mess. Es una comedia inspirada en los esquetches de Laurel y Hardy.
