Throw Momma from the Train

Howlingly funny dark comedy stars Billy Crystal as novelist Larry Donner and Danny DeVito as the sheltered, middle-aged man Owen Lift. Taking a cue after viewing Hitchcock's "Strangers on a Train," Owen pushes Larry's despised ex-wife off a cruise ship... so now, Larry has to fulfill his end of the deal and knock off Owen's overbearing and abusive mother (Anne Ramsey). Co-stars Kim Greist, Kate Mulgrew, Branford Marsalis, Rob Reiner; directed by DeVito. 88 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtrack: English; Subtitles: English. Two-disc set.
