The Ruling Class (1972) starring Peter O'Toole, Alastair Sim, Arthur Lowe, Harry Andrews. Jack Gurney (O'Toole) inherits huge English estate, turns out to be a paranoid schizophrenic who believes that he is Jesus Christ. Naturally, his family starts scheming to steal back his inheritance from him. They're all nutters in their own ways. I think, though, that there is humor in this movie that was lost on me because I'm not British. It was funny, but not lol funny. The last half-hour or so was a let-down to me. The subtitles are hard to find, but adequate. Grade: B-
