Once taboo-breaking, now just shrill French “don’t tell the mother-in-law you’re gay, dad” farce whose reputation rocketed a few years back when Robin Williams appeared in a terrible remake. A trick which didn’t work for The All-New Popeye Show. Further Franco-Italian campery was to come in La Cage aux Folles II, which isn’t a very imaginative title but is better than La Cage Comes Again which is what we imagine it would probably be called now.
