The Road to Wellville
Film Evita director, Alan Parker, comes unstuck with this tasteless farce about turn-of-the-century health habits. Anthony Hopkins is all wavering accent and buckteeth as Dr John Harvey Kellogg (yes, he of cornflakes fame), who ran a notorious sanatorium in Battle Creek, Michigan, where idle rich Americans flocked to have enemas, salt scrubs, yogurt therapy and bowel inspections. Matthew Broderick turns up with chronic constipation, his sexually frustrated wife Bridget Fonda in tow, to indulge in numerous high-class Carry On-style shenanigans among the handsome period detailing and gorgeous spa sets. About as funny as it sounds.
