Today we review "All of Me," a movie starring Steve Martin, Lily Tomlin and Victoria Tennant from 1984. This movie falls into the categories of Drama, Fantasy and Comedy. I think that I would agree with all of those choices.

Steve Martin plays Roger, a lawyer at a Law Firm where he is hoping to help represent a client that will showcase his talents and earn him a future partnership. Lily Tomlin plays Edwina, a lady who has been terminally ill for most of her life. As Edwina is nearing the end of her life she contacts the Law Firm that Roger works at hoping to settle her affairs before her death. Edwina has willed her entire estate to Terry Hoskins (Victoria Tennant), daughter of Fred Hoskins. Fred Hoskins works on Edwina's Estate taking care of the Horses.

Edwina soon dies and is cremated. Her ashes are expected to enter Terry's body, but during the process, Edwina's ashes, in a metal bowl accidently fall out of the window of her bedroom and hit Roger on the head. Edwina's soul enters the right half of Roger's body and Steve Martin's hilarious physical comedy ensue. 

I will not say anything more as I highly recommend that you watch this movie to find out what happens. It is not only absurd and amusing, but Steve Martin's physical comedy is brilliant! Enjoy!
