Brain Donors

Brain Donors (1992) is an American slapstick comedy directed by Dennis Dugan that you can watch online on iFILM. A wealthy millionaire dies and leaves his not-too-sharp widow with one mission: start a ballet company. Three men immediately volunteer to help — ambulance-chasing lawyer Flakfizer, a slow-witted gardener named Jacques, and a manic cab driver called Rocco.

John Turturro plays Flakfizer with a commitment to chaos that makes the film worth watching on its own. The trio's actual goal is to get their hands on the widow's money, and their path there involves the kind of logic-free slapstick lifted directly from the Marx Brothers playbook. Pratfalls, double-takes, running gags that outlast their welcome and then somehow get funny again. It's a deliberately dumb movie that knows exactly what it is.
