CLUE -- a hilarious movie with a huge following. ANOTHER movie that Madeline totally steals in the role of mysterious widow Mrs. White, although, to some extent, she shares this one with Tim Curry; their two characters are traditionally audience's favorites. The film, a murder-mystery spoof, is based on the popular CLUE board game, and features all the familiar characters, all played by talented comedians: Mrs. White (Madeline, of course), Ms. Scarlett (Lesley Ann Warren, not by nature a comedic actress, giving a marvelous performance), Mrs. Peacock (hilarious Emmy-winner Eileen Brennan), Col. Mustard (Martin Mull, also great), Prof. Plum (Christopher Lloyd), and Mr. Green (Michael McKean). Curry plays Wadsworth the butler, ostensibly the dinner's host.
