the 2013 film' run for your wife' is an adaption of the 1980' s ray cooney stage farce of the same name. it is difficult to make a film of a stage farce, as there isn' t the same urgency, timing and quick pace in a film as in a stage farce, also a long time in one scene setting can prove boring on film. run for your wife does start to get boring at times due to lengthy domestic scenes, but it does try to break the monotony with occasional outdoor or other indoor settings. there have been previous attempts to film ray cooney' s work -' not now darling' and' not now comrade', with partial success. does anyone agree that this dvd version of run for your wife has been edited from the film version? i saw the film at the cinema earlier this year (2013) and remember an indoor scene in a pub starring wendy craig - not in the dvd version. i also remember geoffrey davies and geoffrey palmer in the film version - absent from the dvd version again. overall the film was enjoyable, bar the cheesy opening theme tune, the audience at the cinema enjoyed it although they were mainly old people, it was only a wednesday morning one off showing in rochdale. however the stage version i saw in 1995 was much better. that had an all star cast with robin askwith, britt ekland, ian lavender and windsor davies. i thought robin askwith would have been a better lead than danny dyer, but askwith is 63 now, he was great in the 1990' s stage version .

after the screening of' run for your wife' i came away with a big warm, old - fashioned glow in my shorts. the film probably won' t be winning any awards for cooney this time around and is a remarkably quaint project at times that represents an era, some 30 years back, when poo jokes, random sexual clinches and falling off ladders / being hit on the head with a garden rake was all the rage .

carry on - style british comedy is alive and unwell in run for your wife, a grimly old - fashioned, nudge nudge romp based on ray cooney’s long - running 1980s stage farce. it feels like stepping back in time as trousers are dropped, camp gay stereotypes are milked for cheap laughs and the lead actors are encouraged to give wide - eyed performances that virtually poke you in the ribs for attention .

' run for your wife' is a comedy that' s rooted in the ealing comedies of yesteryear. i don' t think ray cooney was all that impressed when a member of the audience compared the film to being a reminder (and a reminder that she loved) of the carry on films of old. i think, even for cooney, that' s taking things a bit too' retro'. in fact, the plot of' run for your wife' takes things, sometimes, into far darker waters. cooney says that :
we wanted to show that the lead character is a man in big trouble, he' s a bigamist about to be found out, not an especially nice person

invasion of the body snatchers 1956 is often cited as a portrait of red scare america. trust no one; for your neighbors, your friends, even your wife could become one of them. a godless commi—er, pod person! by the same token it' s also a view of mccarthyism, with a suspicious hoover and the fbi keeping americans under watch. regardless of any of this, the movie actually averts the trope. word of god stated repeatedly that they were just making a movie and were not going for any social / political commentary .

simon reynolds, digital spy: “run for your wife is about as visually ambitious as a cheap itv sitcom. there' s an odd, unfinished feel to it, as if they filmed the rehearsal and not the actual movie. in the end, it' s hard to fault dyer and co, who at least are fully committed to making themselves look like complete idiots in the name of comedy. if only they were working with material that was actually funny. in an interview with digital spy back in 2011, dyer offered up a blunt and honest assessment of his career as a movie star :
