That Lucky Stiff
1980, dir. Chuck Vincent
“Life is a ball when you’re… That Lucky Stiff”
Burt’s (Randy West) life is in the pits: his girlfriend (Kandi Barbour) can’t stand him and he’s just about to go broke. But when a computing error accidentally adds three zeroes to his back account balance, Burt decides to seize on the opportunity to live out all of his fantasies and heads for Europe in search of all of the pleasures he’s always been deprived of. But, as it always is in the movies, he soon learns that the rich life isn’t as easy as he would’ve suspected.
One of two films shot simultaneously across the United States and Europe by acclaimed filmmaker Chuck Vincent (the other being Bon Appétit), That Lucky Stiff is a fast-paced and witty comedy of errors that also features appearances by Samantha Fox, Candida Royalle, and Kelly Nichols.
