Movie Description
Longfellow Deeds (Adam Sandler) is content to run his pizzeria in the cozy New Hampshire hamlet of Mandrake Falls. His only further desire is to someday see one of his corny rhymes printed in a greeting card. Deeds is awarded much more when he inherits the $40 billion empire of a media tycoon, a distant relative. He is lured to New York City by unscrupulous partners of the deceased where he is preyed upon by greedy stockholders. He also makes ample fodder for tabloid journalists, notably reporter Babe Bennett (Winona Ryder) who poses as a school nurse from Iowa to win Deed's heart and expose him as an idiot to her viewership. Against her will and her own sleazy principles, Babe falls for the charming naivety of Deeds, whose fortune is in jeopardy.


Adam Sandler's man-child persona stands in for Gary Cooper in this remake of the 1936 MR. DEEDS GOES TO TOWN. Sandler and longtime collaborator Tim Herlihy have molded the Frank Capra romantic comedy into a perfect vehicle for its star and a love letter to New York City. Jared Harris as a tabloid TV host and John Turturro as an omnipresent Spanish butler shine in supporting roles.

      Mr. Deeds is Long(fellow) on the Funnies

    Mr. Deeds was one of the most surprising films of 2002 for me - Adam Sandler plays Longfellow Deeds, a small-town pizza shop owner who stumbles across a fortune. The movie then follows Longfellow deeds and his romance with Pam Dawson (Winona Ryder) - and their ups and downs. Mr. Deeds is purely entertaining - no great acting, but very funny humor that mixes Adam Sandler's typical sarcasm with some slapstick jokes.

    Mr. Deeds Cast:
    Adam Sandler .... Longfellow Deeds
    Winona Ryder .... Babe Bennett/Pam Dawson
    Steve Buscemi .... Crazy Eyes
    John McEnroe .... John McEnroe

    Mr. Deeds Quotes:
    [Longfellow Deeds is showing Emilio his frostbitten foot]
    Emilio: The hideousness of that foot will haunt my dreams forever.
    Longfellow Deeds: Oh, yeah. I've heard that before

    Longfellow Deeds: What are you in for?
    Crazy Eyes: I bit the mailman.
    [waves hand around]
    Crazy Eyes: He was doing some sort of wizard magic on me.
    Longfellow Deeds: You sure about that?
    Crazy Eyes: [still waving hand] Not exactly, he might have been waving.

    Longfellow Deeds: SO how is the elevator business treating you, Reuben?
    Reuben the Elevator Operator: Oh, it has its ups and downs.
