The Magic Christian
The Magic Christian is: antiestablishmentarian, antibellum, antitrust, antiseptic, antibiotic, antisocial & antipasto.
A surreal, psychedelic satire that uses absurdist pranks and black humor to skewer materialism and social hypocrisy.
Sir Guy Grand, the richest man in the world, adopts a homeless man, Youngman. Together, they set out to prove that anyone--and anything--can be bought.
