Released in 1991, this twisted comedy from director Frank Oz is top-notch. Richard Dreyfuss plays Dr Leo Marvin, a psychiatrist whose sanity is tested to breaking point when Bob - one of his most dependent patients, played by Bill Murray - tracks him down during his family holiday. Much to his dismay, Marvin's family take a liking to Bob.

Recommended.
