The only truth in this description is the cast list.

Trying to decide which expiring movie to watch next I see that Joss Whedon did a 2013 adaptation of Much Ado About Nothing and it sure as fuck isn't going to be that one.

gonna tell mae/johnny their communications are inscrutable

There's a shot of Paul Newman smirking in reaction to something Wilford Brimley says that's so brief I have to think it's Newman being genuinely caught off guard.

He pronounces subpoenas as "subpeenyees."

He shows up and takes over the movie. It's great.

Definitely checking this out

Is that the one with Randy Quaid?

Oh hell yeah
