    The film "Ishtar" was a wildly original work of genius that was out of step with its time: http://nyer.cm/JyzgU5a pic.twitter.com/lQ8PRRbpih

        @NewYorker Re: Ishtar...I'm the only person I know who thought it was perfectly hilarious. The songs were dead on for being squeamishly off.

        @NewYorker I couldn't agree more. At the time I saw Ishtar I was about 20 & was baffled by the hate. I thought it both brilliant and funny.
