About This Movie

So, 'Come Now That My Husband Is Missing' is this quirky 1986 comedy that dives deep into the absurdity of corporate greed and infidelity. The central character, Xenophon, is a night watchman who finds himself in a truly precarious situation, risking life and limb to protect some incriminating factory books. It's loaded with this undercurrent of tension, balancing slapstick and clever dialogue. The pacing has a nice rhythm—just when you think it’s all about the fire, the plot twists into a web of secret affairs and backstabbing. The performances are spirited, especially the way the cast navigates their petty schemes. It's not just a comedy; it captures a certain cynical humor regarding the human condition and the ridiculousness of desperation. A real oddity in the genre, worth a look for its distinct flavor.
