    Well, you apparently lost my list, and after an unsuccessful attempt at
mailing it to you, I have decided to (gasp) re-post it:

*Monty Python and the Holy Grail
*Life of Brian
*any Pink Panther movie with Peter Sellers (including a Shot in the Dark)
*Murder by Death
*This is Spinal Tap
*After Hours

  In light of previous comments, I should probably list all the PP movies
separately:

*The Pink Panther
*A Shot in the Dark
*The Return of the Pink Panther
*The Pink Panther Strikes Again
*The Revenge of the Pink Panther

  And I should point out:  Of course Murder by Death was a comedy!  Screenplay
by Neil Simon, starring Peter Sellers, Truman Capote, David Niven, Sir Alec 
Guiness, etc.  A sendup of Agatha Christie's Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple,
Charlie Chan, Sam Spade, Nick and Nora Charles, and every 30s and 40s whodunnit
ever made.
