Rose Schwartz: Actors don't like to play coma. They feel it limits their range.

Featured review
Genuinely funny movie
Soapdish may go down as one of the single most under-rated movies ever made.
A stellar, unselfish cast who understood exactly where the movie was going and the roles they played in it. While everyone hammed it up, there was no one-upmanship. Kline showed wit and great physical comedy, Goldberg and Downey knew how to carry on a funny conversation while someone else was talking, I could just go on.
Do not pass this movie by!
