Dr Dolittle 1998 ((full))
While the name "Doctor Dolittle" originally conjures images of Rex Harrison waltzing with a pushmi-pullyu, the film completely reinvented the character for a new generation. It wasn't just a movie about a man who talks to animals; it was a movie about a materialistic, repressed surgeon who has a nervous breakdown when his childhood "curse" returns.
The comedy derives from Murphy’s grounded, frustrated reactions to the absurdity surrounding him. Whether he is arguing with a drunk monkey (voiced by Phil Proctor) or trying to maintain professional dignity while a dog licks his face, Murphy’s genius for reaction shots is on full display. He is the anchor of sanity in a world gone mad, and his exasperated delivery makes the fantastical premise feel tangible. dr dolittle 1998
