Who's Harry Crumb? (1989)

 

Directed by Paul Flaherty. Found on Tubi. John Candy, Annie Potts, Jeffrey Jones, Shawnee Smith, Tim Thomerson, Barry Corbin.

On Kinja Golden Horn I had a "Crime Comedy" tag for just such movies but I failed to do that here so it is filed under "Crime Films" with other lightweight comedies.
