YMMV / Foul Play

Go To

  • Harsher in Hindsight: In the same year that a film about a plot to assassinate the Pope was released, Pope John Paul I mysteriously died just over a month after being elected, with theories that some foul play was involved persisting to this day.
  • One-Scene Wonder:
    • He has slightly more than one scene, but Dudley Moore arguably steals the movie as the hapless Stanley, who has no idea about any conspiracy except the one involving him getting into Gloria's pants; while a much-loved performer in his native U.K., this role opened up a new avenue for him in American productions. The following year saw him arrive on the Hollywood A-list in Ten.
    • Billy Barty as the Bible-selling midget also stands out.
