About Eddie Monsoon - a Life?
Eddie Monsoon is a South African entertainer who, following the failure of several pilot shows for TV in his homeland, faked his suicide, went to Brazil and then to England where he attracted notoriety with his explicit sex farces on the stage and shocking TV shows which even Channel 4 banned.
Directed by Sandy Johnson, Eddie Monsoon - a Life? leans on a strong ensemble — Adrian Edmondson, Tony Bilbow, Dawn French — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1984.
