Burn Hollywood Burn

Aka "An Alan Smithee Film". Eric Idle plays a filmmaker named Alan Smithee - but since that is the pseudonym directors' use when they don't want screen credit, he's stuck when he wants to disown his latest movie. This witless comedy turned to custard and ironically the director (Arthur Hiller) wisely did the same with this one. This film also won the 1998 Golden Raspberry Award for Worst Picture!
