The Cruise

A stowaway sneaks aboard a ship departing on a cruise down the Vistula River. The captain takes him for a Communist Party cultural coordinator and the intruder gladly adapts to his new role, immediately setting to work at manipulating the passengers and crew into silly and vaguely humiliating games. Before long, Tym has got everyone under his thumb and created his own comedic dictatorship.

The Cruise
This really is a cult classic. I enjoyed so much of it. The physical comedy, the cast breaking character in some scenes the funkiness of it all. Really great film I haven’t seen the whole thing before despite the fact I’ve been quoting it for years. You can tell censorship deleted scenes but it doesn’t take away from the viewing.
