How It Feels

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

A screwball inheritance comedy where a chain-smoking young man wages war against his own smoking habit, and his scheming uncle, for a fortune. It's a carnival of slapstick desperation and family chaos.
