While it&#8217;s little-seen these days, <em>&#8230;Rabbit<\/em> deserves a wider audience: it&#8217;s consistently clever and surreally anarchic. Stand-up comedian Tom Smothers is perfectly cast as an overworked business executive who seemingly &#8220;has it all&#8221; &#8212; money, a gorgeous apartment, a willing girlfriend (Susanne Zenor) &#8212; but leaves all this behind to pursue his <em>real<\/em> passion in life. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/GTKYR-Breakfast.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/GTKYR-Breakfast.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"656\" height=\"352\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-58728\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/GTKYR-Breakfast.png 656w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/GTKYR-Breakfast-300x161.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/GTKYR-Breakfast-128x69.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/GTKYR-Breakfast-503x270.png 503w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 656px) 100vw, 656px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>From the opening sequence, in which both Smothers and his assistant (a delightful John Astin) distractedly ignore a phone call warning that a bomb is about to go off in their building, to Smothers&#8217; equally bizarre encounter shortly thereafter with an overly solicitous piano tuner, it&#8217;s clear that Jordan Crittenden&#8217;s screenplay will continue to take us in decidedly unexpected directions. <\/p>\n<p>Indeed, it&#8217;s refreshing to watch a counter-cultural story so grounded in satirical &#8220;mainstream&#8221; reality: Smothers doesn&#8217;t (as predicted) go off to drop out and smoke pot; instead, he very much has a real working alternative in mind, one he knows will provide him with the &#8220;seedy&#8221; lifestyle he truly craves. As fate would have it, he turns out to be a pretty dismal magician (though this doesn&#8217;t deter him in the slightest); fortunately we&#8217;re spared from seeing him perform all that often. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/Get-To-Know-Your-Rabbit-Smothers-Magician.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/Get-To-Know-Your-Rabbit-Smothers-Magician.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"656\" height=\"352\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-58730\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/Get-To-Know-Your-Rabbit-Smothers-Magician.png 656w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/Get-To-Know-Your-Rabbit-Smothers-Magician-300x161.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/Get-To-Know-Your-Rabbit-Smothers-Magician-128x69.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/Get-To-Know-Your-Rabbit-Smothers-Magician-503x270.png 503w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 656px) 100vw, 656px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Instead, two different subplots unfold: in one, Smothers woos a nameless &#8220;terrific-looking girl&#8221; (Katharine Ross) who&#8217;s fallen head-over-heels for his &#8220;heroic&#8221; hands; in the other, Astin pursues a relentless drive to build up a new company around Smothers&#8217; anarchic notion of &#8220;living life from the gut level&#8221;.
