Apple Pie

About This Movie

Apple Pie is a quirky little gem that dances between comedy and crime in a way that's both lighthearted and absurd. The story of Jacques Blinbaum, who concocts a ludicrous scheme to fake his own kidnapping, sets a whimsical tone that permeates the film. There's something oddly charming about the way it explores themes of desperation and ambition through his costumed antics across Manhattan's rooftops. The pacing feels offbeat yet engaging, and the performances have this raw energy that makes you feel like you’re in on the joke. It’s definitely a unique entry from the 70s that stands out due to its blend of humor and off-the-wall storytelling.

Apple Pie isn't the easiest to find, especially in good condition—most copies out there seem to be VHS or faded prints. The film has somehow slipped under the radar, making it a curious find for collectors who appreciate offbeat comedies from the 70s. There’s a certain charm to its oddities, and it often piques interest among those who enjoy digging deep into the more obscure titles of that era.
