Plot:

An Innuit hunter races his sled home with a fresh-caught halibut. This fish pervades the entire film, in real and imaginary form. Meanwhile, Axel tags fish in New York as a naturalist's gofer. He's happy there, but a messenger arrives to bring him to Arizona for his uncle's wedding. It's a ruse to get Axel into the family business. In Arizona, Axel meets two odd women: vivacious, needy, and plagued by neuroses and familial discord. He gets romantically involved with one, while the other, rich but depressed, plays accordion tunes to a gaggle of pet turtles.

Cast:

Johnny Depp as Axel Blackmar

Jerry Lewis as Leo Sweetie

Faye Dunaway as Elaine Stalker

This is one of his movies that I've only seen bits and pieces of, not in full length, and it was on TV the other day but I didn't know it until it was the last half hour of it!

I've seen bits of this on TV again, it looks so weird, it jumps back and forth, if you're not paying attention, you kind of lose what's going on!
