Parodia filmu gangsterskiego. Mamy lata dwudzieste ubiegłego wieku, w Stanach trwa prohibicja. Film opowiada historię Bugsy`ego Malone oraz dwóch konkurencyjnych gangów pod wodzą Grubego Sama i Dana Elegancika. Walka jest oryginalna - nie na kule, ale na torty z kremem, bowiem wszyscy bohaterowie to osoby nieletnie - chłopaki i dziewczyny poniżej 16. roku życia. Humorystycznie i karykaturalnie pokazany świat gangsterskich porachunków w dziecięcym wydaniu.
Writer-director Alan Parkers feature debut Bugsy Malone is a pastiche of American movies, a musical gangster comedy set in 1929, featuring prohibition, showgirls and gang warfare, with references to everything from Some Like It Hot to The Godfather. Uniquely, though, all the parts are played by children, including an excellent if underused Jodie Foster as platinum-blonde singer Tallulah, Scott Baio in the title role and a nine-year-old Dexter Fletcher wielding a baseball bat. Cream-firing "spluge guns" side-step any real violence and the movie climaxes cheerfully with the biggest custard pie fight this side of Casino Royale (1967). Unfortunately for a musical, Paul Williams score--part honky-tonk jazz homage, part 1970s Elton John-style pop--lets the side down with a lack of memorable tunes. Nevertheless, Parkers direction is spot on and the look of the film is superb, a fantasy movie-movie existing in the same parallel reality as The Cotton Club and Chicago. A rare British love letter to classic American cinema, Bugsy Malone remains a true original, in Parkers words "the work of a madman" and one of the strangest yet most stylish childrens films ever made. On the DVD: Bugsy Malone s picture is presented non-anamorphically at 1.66:1, with rich colours and plenty of detail. The print is excellent. The audio is stereo only and while full and clear seems to leave a hole in the middle of the soundstage. Extras include an informative commentary by Parker, eight pages of trivia notes by Parker and a very informative 12-page booklet, also by the director. There are three trailers, nine character profiles, two scored galleries, and more imaginatively, a multi-angle option to compare Parkers sketches, their comic-strip realisation by Graham Thomson and the finished opening sequence. Quality over quantity make this a strong collection of extras, though recollections from the stars would have added so much more. -- Gary S. Dalkin
