Review of The Beautician and the Beast (1997) by P B — 14 Nov 2007
Beauty-school teacher Joy Miller is whisked out of Queens and deposited in Eastern Europe after she is mistaken for a science teacher. Boris Pochenko is the gruff and stilted president for life she tames with mousse and kindness.
Fran Drescher, with that inimitable voice and colorful clothing, is very funny. It is not a far stretch to compare her favorably with Lucille Ball. Timothy Dalton is in rare form in the role of the beast.
Great movie if your looking for a no brainer comedy.
