How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A frantic comedy of mistaken identities that piles escalating chaos on top of a simple premise, three men at a Venetian hotel keep getting the wrong information from a hapless bellboy, sending them spinning into situations none of them intended. It's pure slapstick energy driven by confusion rather than character.
