The plot turns entirely on the characters' misunderstanding of what's going on, but those misunderstandings are not at all surreal, they're very much derived from who the people are. Definitely a movie that wouldn't have worked without all-star actors making the brilliant dialogue sound natural. Unbelievable script, superb directing and editing (the timing is superb), no real point and absolutely no "message," but funny has hell.
