About this listen
Well, hello, Jupiter Hollow!
There's something fishy going on up in the big city, and we don't know about you, but we're mad as a wet wasp about it! So, grab your Tuesday panties, your culottes, and your snake bracelets and join us, as we set out to kick some snooty New York ass up at the legendary Plaza Hotel in the name of "Big Business" (1988).
This delightful little farce starring the incomparable Bette Midler and Lily Tomlin is basically a re-telling Shakespeare's "Comedy of Errors", set in the high-octane New York of the 1980s where corporate greed is no match for a little homespun charm and arm-twisting. The premise is comedy gold: twins separated at birth, with one pair raised in sophisticated Manhattan and the other in rural Jupiter Hollow. When the city twins' corporation threatens to close the factory that sustains the country twins' hometown, chaos ensues at the Plaza Hotel as identities become hopelessly tangled.
