Among the multinational characters are an American industrialist out to exploit the island"s rich source of mineral water -- also the source of all the subsequent trouble on the island - some inexplicable French-German visitors, a singing revolutionary with ties to Fidel Castro, and various parodies of Brit diplomats and politicians, Margaret Thatcher included. Both Michael Caine as the guv, and Leonard Rossiter as the stuffy Sir Malcolm hand in winning performances. Films with similar themes include Woody Allen"s Bananas and Club Paradise, starring Robin Williams. ...Water ( 1985 )
