Also known as Houdini & Company, The Robbery, The Incident, and (our favorite) Shag-O-Rama.

The Linguini Incident was the directorial debut of Richard Shepard, the man who would finally get out of “movie jail” when he made 2004’s Matador (starring Pierce Brosnan), then went on to make The Hunting Party (starring Richard Gere), Dom Hemingway (starring Jude Law), and The Perfection (starring Allison Williams).

It was a low budget film by a first time director that somehow snagged the INSANE cast of:

The final edit was taken away from the director, different cuts were released in different countries, and it’s main theatrical release was in Los Angeles in 1992…during the LA riots. When there was a curfew.

30 years later, the co-producer and director got the rights back, sourced the longest 35mm print they could find (an epic story in its own right!) and release this Director’s Cut - 8 minutes shorter than the shortest of the previous cuts!
