You either love it or hate it, but Y.Y of Mr. Go is certainly a cult classic you should not miss. Sure the film is bad, but that is the charm of so many cult classics (just look at the Rocky Horror Picture Show!) As amazingly obscure as this film by Burgess Meredith is it has become more readily available recently in Dollar Tree's nationwide. Starring a young Jeff Bridges in his first film roll as Nero Finnegan is incentive enough alone to watch the flick, but the quirky soundtrack is also delectably tacky and fun. This is one of those films I love to watch when the weather outside is bad, or I am home with a cold...it just picks me up! I see another comment that said this was better than Austin Powers, darn right! Films such as Y.Y. of Mr. Go and Beyond the Valley of the Dolls were the raw inspiration for Mike Myers' films. In all fairness I understand why so many people hate the film, but as a cult film fanatic I hold it in high regard. The only thing that could make it better is if I could have seen it in a theater.
