Screamingly funny

A very funny parody of a very stupid book, "The Norman Rockwell Code" should be seen by everyone. Mike Walsh's impression of Don Knotts has been praised by many, but I was also impressed by Danica Carlson's performance as "Sopha Poisson of the Quebec Secret Service"; this is a young actress to watch, and I'll never again be able to think of a crème brûlée or a meringue without being reminded of her.

And despite the absurdity of the "great secret" of the "Norman Rockwell Code", at least it doesn't contain as many howlers as Dan Brown's ignorant hackwork did.

The location photography, by the way, is excellent, showing New England as it truly is, a rare film achievement.
