Monty (Rodney Dangerfield), the world's biggest nebbish and a man with more nasty personal habits than you can count, has one year to change his ways or he stands to lose a fortune he would otherwise inherit vis-a-vis his mother-in-law's will. Trouble is, Clive (Tom Ewell) will stop at nothing to stop Monty. This comedy showcases Rodney in rare form, with a supporting cast that includes Geraldine Fitzgerald, Jennifer Jason Leigh and Joe Pesci.
