series Home for the Holidays
Directed by John Landis | 1983
With Dan Aykroyd, Eddie Murphy, Jamie Lee Curtis, Ralph Bellamy, Don Ameche
"I had the most absurd nightmare: I was poor and no one liked me." Pawns in a wager between the wealthy Duke brothers (the ingeniously cast Ameche and Bellamy), a hustler (Murphy) and a banker (Aykroyd) trade places, bringing the former into the highest of society and leading the latter into the arms of a hooker with a heart of gold (Curtis) in Landis’ screwball take on The Prince and the Pauper.
